Proverbs 14:26
He who fears the LORD is secure in confidence, and his children shall have a place of refuge.
BSB
ASV
In the fear of Jehovah is strong confidence; And his children shall have a place of refuge.
KJV
In the fear of the Lord is strong confidence: and his children shall have a place of refuge.
In the way of God fear produces strength; as Solomon witnesses, who says, "In the fear of the Lord is strong confidence." For 'strong confidence' is said 'to be in the fear of the Lord,' in that, in truth, our mind so much the more valorously sets at nought all the terrors of temporal vicissitudes, the more thoroughly that it submits itself in fear to the Author of those same temporal things.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
The walk8
Follow this verse’s cross-references two steps out. Each card is a verse this one points to, and beneath it the verses that one points to in turn. Where several different paths arrive at the same place, that place is listed first: the text keeps returning to it. Every stop shows its own words, and every stop is a page.

For You have been my refuge, a tower of strength against the enemy.
