Isaiah 50:10

Who is among you that feareth the Lord, in the proper respect for His majesty, but not in slavish dread, that obeyeth the voice of His servant, which is the Word of God, that walketh in darkness and hath no light? this being the lot of such as side with the Lord. Let him trust in the name of the Lord, in the midst of all tribulation, and stay upon his God, since in Him is full and complete security for all believers.
