"For the waywardness of the simple will kill them, and the complacency
of fools will destroy them; but whoever listens to me (wisdom) will live
in safety and be at ease, without fear of harm."
but whoever listens to me will live in safety and be at ease, without fear of harm
Deuteronomy 33:28 "So Israel will live in safety; Jacob will dwell secure in a land of grain and new wine, where the heavens drop dew."
Proverbs 3:23 Then you will go on your way in safety, and your foot will not stumble.
Proverbs 1:20-27 Out in the open wisdom calls aloud, she raises her voice in the public square; on top of the wall she cries out, at the city gate she makes her speech: "How long will you who are simple love your simple ways? How long will mockers delight in mockery and fools hate knowledge? Repent at my rebuke! Then I will pour out my thoughts to you, I will make known to you my teachings. But since you refuse to listen when I call and no one pays attention when I stretch out my hand, since you disregard all my advice and do not accept my rebuke, I in turn will laugh when disaster strikes you; I will mock when calamity overtakes you--when calamity overtakes you like a storm, when disaster sweeps over you like a whirlwind, when distress and trouble overtake you."
Psalm 112:6-8 Surely the righteous will never be shaken; they will be remembered forever. They will have no fear of bad news; their hearts are steadfast, trusting in the LORD. Their hearts are secure, they will have no fear; in the end they will look in triumph on their foes.
