⁵ But now you are the person who has trouble.
    You yourself are not patient.
    Trouble has come to you and you feel afraid.
⁶ But you respect God's authority,
    so you should trust him.
You live in an honest way,
    so you should still hope for better things.
⁷ Think about this:
    People who are not guilty of sin do not suddenly die.
    God does not destroy people who do good things.
