and confident
To trust, have confidence in, feel secure, or rely on; primarily expressing a state of being securely reliant upon a person, power, or thing, either in a practical or psychological sense. Used for both human and divine objects of reliance, the term conveys a sense of assurance, lack of fear, and settled confidence, whether justifiable or misplaced. Often used with prepositions indicating the object of trust (e.g., in Yahweh, in chariots, in riches, in people), it may denote a secure hope, an act of entrusting oneself, or even a sense of complacency.

SIBI-P1 Translation H982-28
and one who trusts
| Morphological Notes | Qal active participle, masculine singular absolute, prefixed with conjunction וּ ("and"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal active participle masculine singular denotes a male individual characterized by the action of trusting or relying. The conjunction וּ adds "and," and the participial form is best rendered substantively as "one who trusts," preserving both verbal force and masculine singular morphology. |
