13 “If you set your heart aright,
    stretch out your hands toward him.
14 If iniquity is in your hand, put it far away.
    Don’t let unrighteousness dwell in your tents.
15 Surely then you will lift up your face without spot;
    Yes, you will be steadfast, and will not fear:
16 for you will forget your misery.
    You will remember it like waters that have passed away.
17 Life will be clearer than the noonday.
    Though there is darkness, it will be as the morning.
18 You will be secure, because there is hope.
    Yes, you will search, and will take your rest in safety.
19 Also you will lie down, and no one will make you afraid.
    Yes, many will court your favor.
20 But the eyes of the wicked will fail.
    They will have no way to flee.
    Their hope will be the giving up of the spirit.”
