The Man Who Fears the Lord

His heart is steadfast, trusting in the Lord.

He will have no fear, until he looks in triumph on his foes.

His righteousness stands forever.
His horn [4] will be lifted high in glory.

The End of the Wicked

He will gnash his teeth and melt away.
The desire of the wicked will perish.
