Job 11:19

FearRest and sabbath

17 Your life will be brighter than noonday; its darkness will be like the morning.

18 You will be secure, because there is hope, and you will look around and lie down in safety.

You will lie down without fear, and many will court your favor.

20 But the eyes of the wicked will fail, and escape will elude them; they will hope for their last breath.”
