‘Oh love YHWH, all you his holy ones,

YHWH preserves those who are faithful,

And plentifully rewards him who deals arrogantly.

Be strong, and let your heart take courage,

All you who hope in YHWH.'

The Psalm finally closes with a cry to all God's people, His ‘holy ones', to love Him truly, and that because He preserves those who are faithful, while at the same time pouring out abundant judgment on those who behave arrogantly. God's people are thus to be strong, and to take good courage, because their hope is in Him.
