¹² “I, I am he ^(A)who comforts you;
    who are you that you are afraid of ^(B)man who dies,
    of the son of man who is made ^(C)like grass,
¹³ and have forgotten the Lord, your Maker,
    ^(D)who stretched out the heavens
    and ^(E)laid the foundations of the earth,
and you fear continually all the day
    because of the wrath of ^(F)the oppressor,
when he sets himself to destroy?
    And where is the wrath of ^(G)the oppressor?

^7 (A)“Listen to me, you who know righteousness,
    the people ^(B)in whose heart is my law;
^(C)fear not the reproach of man,
    nor be dismayed at their revilings.
^8 (D)For the moth will eat them up like a garment,
    and the worm will eat them like wool,
^(E)but my righteousness will be forever,
    and my salvation to all generations.”
