⁵ Trust in the Lord^(A) with all your heart
    and lean not on your own understanding;
⁶ in all your ways submit to him,
    and he will make your paths^(B) straight.^[a](C)

²⁸ Do you not know?
    Have you not heard?^(A)
The Lord is the everlasting^(B) God,
    the Creator^(C) of the ends of the earth.^(D)
He will not grow tired or weary,^(E)
    and his understanding no one can fathom.^(F)
29 He gives strength^(G) to the weary^(H)
    and increases the power of the weak.
³⁰ Even youths grow tired and weary,
    and young men^(I) stumble and fall;^(J)
31 but those who hope^(K) in the Lord
    will renew their strength.^(L)
They will soar on wings like eagles;^(M)
    they will run and not grow weary,
    they will walk and not be faint.^(N)

“Cursed is the one who trusts in man,^(A)
    who draws strength from mere flesh
    and whose heart turns away from the Lord.^(B)
6 That person will be like a bush in the wastelands;
    they will not see prosperity when it comes.
They will dwell in the parched places^(C) of the desert,
    in a salt^(D) land where no one lives.

⁷ “But blessed^(E) is the one who trusts^(F) in the Lord,
    whose confidence is in him.
⁸ They will be like a tree planted by the water
    that sends out its roots by the stream.^(G)
It does not fear when heat comes;
    its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought^(H)
    and never fails to bear fruit.”^(I)
