⁴ The reward of humility is the fear of the Lord,
    along with wealth, honor, and life.

¹⁷ Never let yourself envy sinners;
    instead, remain^[a] in fear of the Lord every day,
¹⁸ for there is surely a future life,
    and what you hope for will not be cut off.

²¹ My son, fear both the Lord and the king,
    and don’t keep company with rebels.

¹⁴ Blessed is the man who always fears the Lord,^[a]
    but whoever hardens his heart will fall into disaster.

²⁵ Fearing any human being is a trap,
    but confiding in the Lord keeps anyone safe.
