trust
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.
