Exegesis

The negated future passive phobethesomai {φοβηθήσομαι | pho-bē-thḗ-so-mai} conveys a determined resolution not to experience fear, immediately followed by the rhetorical interrogative ti poiesei moi anthropos {τί ποιήσει μοι ἄνθρωπος | tí poi-ḗ-sei moi án-thrō-pos}, which downplays any human capacity to harm the speaker. English rendering slightly adjusts Greek word order to deliver a clear and forceful confession of trust.
