You who fear the Lord, wait for his mercy,
   turn not away lest you fall.

You who fear the Lord, trust him,
   and your reward will not be lost.

You who fear the Lord, hope for good things,
   for lasting joy and mercy.
                                            (Sirach 2: 7-9)


Those who fear the Lord
   disobey not his words; those who love him
   keep his ways.

Those who fear the Lord seek to please him,
   those who love him are filled with his law.

Those who fear the Lord prepare their hearts
   and humble themselves before him.
                                         (Sirach 2: 15-18)





Peace be with you!
