5 N o temerás el terror de la noche, Ni la flecha que vuela de día,

15 M e invocará, y le responderé; Yo estaré con él en la angustia; Lo rescataré y lo honraré;

He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

16 L o saciaré de larga vida, Y le haré ver Mi salvación.”

With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
