11. In my wandering I have seen many things; And more than my words is my understanding.
12. Ofttimes was I in danger even to death; And I was preserved because of these things.
13. The spirit of those that fear the Lord shall live; For their hope is upon him that saves them.
14. Whoso fears the Lord shall not be afraid, and shall not play the coward; For he is his hope.
15. Blessed is the soul of him that fears the Lord: To whom does he give heed? and who is his stay?
16. The eyes of the Lord are upon them that love him, A mighty protection and strong stay, A cover from the hot blast, and a cover from the noonday, A guard from stumbling, and a succour from falling.
17. He raises up the soul, and enlighteneth the eyes: He gives healing, life, and blessing.
18. He that sacrifices of a thing wrongfully gotten, his offering is made in mockery; And the mockeries of wicked men are not well-pleasing.
