14 Sinners are afraid in Zion;
    trembling has seized the godless:
“Who of us can live[a] with devouring fire?
    Who of us can live[b] with everlasting consuming hearths?”
15 He who walks in righteousness
    and speaks uprightness,
who rejects the gain of extortion,
    who refuses[c] a bribe,
who stops up his ears[d] from hearing bloodshed[e]
    and shuts his eyes from seeing evil.
16 That one will live on the heights;
    the fortresses of rocks will be his refuge.
His food will be given;
    his waters[f] will endure.
