¹⁸ Lo, the eye of Jehovah `is' to those fearing Him, To those waiting for His kindness,

⁷ God doth bless us, and all ends of earth fear Him!

¹⁰ The beginning of wisdom `is' fear of Jehovah, Good understanding have all doing them, His praise `is' standing for ever!

² And risen to you, ye who fear My name, Hath the sun of righteousness -- and healing in its wings, And ye have gone forth, and have increased as calves of a stall.

¹⁰ The commencement of wisdom `is' the fear of Jehovah, And a knowledge of the Holy Ones `is' understanding.

¹⁶ Better `is' a little with the fear of Jehovah, Than much treasure, and tumult with it.

⁷ render, therefore, to all `their' dues; to whom tribute, the tribute; to whom custom, the custom; to whom fear, the fear; to whom honour, the honour.

¹³ The end of the whole matter let us hear: -- `Fear God, and keep His commands, for this `is' the whole of man.

³³ The fear of Jehovah `is' the instruction of wisdom, And before honour `is' humility!

⁷ Fear of Jehovah `is' a beginning of knowledge, Wisdom and instruction fools have despised!

¹⁴ To a despiser of his friends `is' shame, And the fear of the Mighty he forsaketh.
