The repetition of the opening affirmation establishes the resolution and reaffirmation of trust after articulating the reality of the threat. The return to the stance of silent waiting suggests that despite enemies' opposition, the proper response remains patient confidence in God. The refusal to be dissuaded from this stance by the reality of threat indicates that trust is not contingent on the absence of opposition. This verse articulates the stability and persistence of faith: it is not shaken by the intensity of opposition.
