Job 5:17-27

17See how happy is the person whom God corrects; so do not reject the discipline of the Almighty.

18For he wounds but he also bandages; he strikes, but his hands also heal.

19He will rescue you from six calamities; no harm will touch you in seven.

20In famine he will redeem you from death, and in battle, from the power of the sword.

21You will be safe from slander and not fear destruction when it comes.

22You will laugh at destruction and hunger and not fear the land’s wild creatures.

23For you will have a covenant with the stones of the field, and the wild animals will be at peace with you.

24You will know that your tent is secure, and nothing will be missing when you inspect your home.

25You will also know that your offspring will be many and your descendants like the grass of the earth.

26You will approach the grave in full vigor, as a stack of sheaves is gathered in its season.

27We have investigated this, and it is true! Hear it and understand it for yourself.
