Proverbs 1:33

Protection and safetyFearWisdomRest and sabbath

31 So they will eat the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.

32 For the waywardness of the simple will slay them, and the complacency of fools will destroy them.

But whoever listens to me will dwell in safety, secure from the fear of evil.”
