Afterthesethingsthe wordof the LORDcameto Abramin a vision,saying,"Do not fear,Abram,I am a shieldto you; Your rewardshall be verygreat."
And place[your] goldin the dust,And [the gold of] Ophiramong the stonesof the brooks,
"For thenyou will delightin the AlmightyAnd liftup your faceto God.
Orwith princeswho had gold,Who were fillingtheir houses[with] silver.
The LORDis my rockand my fortressand my deliverer,My God,my rock,in whom I takerefuge;My shieldand the hornof my salvation,my stronghold.
For the LORDGodis a sunand shield;The LORDgivesgraceand glory;Nogoodthingdoes He withholdfrom those who walkuprightly.
And He will be the stabilityof your times,A wealthof salvation,wisdomand knowledge;The fearof the LORDis his treasure.
Do not fear,for I am with you; Do not anxiously lookabout you, for I am your God.I will strengthenyou, surelyI will helpyou, SurelyI will upholdyou with My righteousrighthand.'
"The LORDis my portion,"saysmy soul,"ThereforeI havehopein Him."
Whatthenshall we sayto these things?IfGod[is] for us, who[is] againstus?
