he is just and upright. - In my anguish I cried out to the Lord
and called to my God for help.

- Blessed are all those who fear the Lord
and walk in his ways. - For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it.

so shall he depart, naked as he came,
with nothing remaining from his labor
that he can carry away in his hands. - For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
