Job 5:8-20

8But as for me I will seek unto 1God, and unto 2God commit my cause;

9Who doeth great things and unsearchable, marvellous things without number;

10Who giveth rain on the face of the earth, and sendeth waters on the face of the fields;

11Setting up on high those that are low; and mourners are exalted to prosperity.

12He disappointeth the devices of the crafty, and their hands carry not out the enterprise.

13He taketh the wise in their own craftiness; and the counsel of the wily is carried headlong:

14They meet with darkness in the daytime, and grope at midday as in the night.

15And he saveth the needy from the sword, from their mouth, and from the hand of the mighty.

16So the poor hath what he hopeth for, and unrighteousness stoppeth her mouth.

17Behold, happy is the man whom 3God correcteth; therefore despise not the chastening of the Almighty.

18For he maketh sore, and bindeth up; he woundeth, and his hands make whole.

19He will deliver thee in six troubles, and in seven there shall no evil touch thee.

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