1 Kings 8:40

⁴But there is forgiveness with you, therefore you are feared.

⁵A voice came from the throne, saying, “Give praise to our God, all you his servants, you who fear him, the small and the great!”

³⁹I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear me forever, for their good and the good of their children after them. ⁴⁰I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from following them, to do them good. I will put my fear in their hearts, that they may not depart from me.

²that you might fear the LORD your God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command you—you, your son, and your son’s son, all the days of your life; and that your days may be prolonged.

¹²He said, “Don’t lay your hand on the boy or do anything to him. For now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me.”

²⁸Therefore, receiving a Kingdom that can’t be shaken, let’s have grace, through which we serve God acceptably, with reverence and awe,

¹³You shall fear the LORD your God; and you shall serve him, and shall swear by his name.

⁴Who wouldn’t fear you, Lord, and glorify your name? For you only are holy. For all the nations will come and worship before you. For your righteous acts have been revealed.”

¹³He will bless those who fear the LORD, both small and great.

²⁴Only fear the LORD, and serve him in truth with all your heart; for consider what great things he has done for you.
