And who is he who will harm you if you become followers of what is good?
No evil shall befall you, Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling;
And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

Deceit is in the heart of those who devise evil, But counselors of peace have joy.
The fear of the Lord leads to life, And he who has it will abide in satisfaction; He will not be visited with evil.
He who keeps his command will experience nothing harmful; And a wise man’s heart discerns both time and judgment,
Though they join forces, the wicked will not go unpunished; But the posterity of the righteous will be delivered.
It is good that you grasp this, And also not remove your hand from the other; For he who fears God will escape them all.
