14:26In the fear of the Lord one has68 strong confidence,69
and it will be a refuge70 for his children.
Footnotes
- 68 Heb “In the fear of the Lord [is] confidence of strength.” The phrase “one has” does not appear in the Hebrew but is supplied in the translation for the sake of smoothness.
- 69 Heb “confidence of strength.” This construct phrase features an attributive genitive: “strong confidence” (so most English versions; “a secure fortress”).
- 70 The fear of the Lord will not only provide security for the parent but will also be a refuge for children. The line recalls Exod 20:5–6 where children will reap the benefits of the righteous parents. The line could also be read as “he [= God] will be a refuge for the children.”
