There is no fear (dread) of God before his eyes.

Or that I will not be poor and steal,
And so profane the name of my God.

By saying, “It is not He [who speaks through His prophets];
Misfortune and evil shall not come on us,
Nor will we see war or famine.

“Your own wickedness will discipline you,
And your desertion of the faith will punish you.

For you to abandon (reject) the Lord your God,
And for you to be indifferent to Me and dismiss the [reverent] fear of Me,” says the Lord God of hosts.

And did not choose the fear of the Lord [that is, obeying Him with reverence and awe-filled respect],


There is no fear of God [and His awesome power] before their eyes.”
