NASB:
The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous runs into it and is safe.
NIV:
The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.
Observations:
Proverbs is such a rich book filled with divine wisdom and extolling the greatness of our God. Here is a sample of that.
The very name of our Lord is the equivalent of a strong tower.
Those who seek the Lord with all of their heart, the righteous, can run to his name.
When the righteous run to the name of the Lord, they are safe.
Takeaways:
When we are afraid, there is nowhere else to run than to the Lord.
And not only can we run to him, we can merely invoke his name and safety will arrive.
It is never cowardly to run to the name of the Lord, our strong tower.
