Job 5:17-21

17“Blessed is the person whom God corrects. That person should not despise discipline from the Almighty.

18God injures, but he bandages. He beats you up, but his hands make you well.

19He will keep you safe from six troubles, and when the seventh one comes, no harm will touch you:

20“In famine he will save you from death, and in war he will save you from the sword.

21“When the tongue lashes out, you will be safe, and you will not be afraid of destruction when it comes.
