7 The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of knowledge.+ Wisdom and discipline are what mere fools have despised.+

27 The fear of Jehovah is a well of life,+ to turn away from the snares of death.+

16 At that time those in fear of Jehovah+ spoke with one another, each one with his companion, and Jehovah kept paying attention and listening.+ And a book of remembrance* began to be written up before him+ for those in fear of Jehovah and for those thinking upon his name.+

31 Then, indeed, the congregation+ throughout the whole of Ju·deʹa and Galʹi·lee and Sa·marʹi·a entered into a period of peace, being built up; and as it walked in the fear of Jehovah*+ and in the comfort of the holy spirit+ it kept on multiplying.
