He is not afraid of bad news; his heart is firm, trusting in the Lord.

I sought the Lord, and he answered me and delivered me from all my fears.

giving thanks always and for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,

Therefore in the east give glory to the Lord; in the coastlands of the sea, give glory to the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.

Keep me from the trap that they have laid for me and from the snares of evildoers!
