Job 5:11-16

11So that 1He setsH7760 on highH4791 those who are lowlyH8217, And those who mournH6937 are liftedH7682 to safetyH3468.12He 2frustratesH6565 the schemesH4284 of the shrewdH6175, So that their handsH3027 cannotH3808 attainH6213 successH8454.13He 3capturesH3920 the wiseH2450 by their own clevernessH6193, And the adviceH6098 of the cunningH6617 is quicklyH4116 thwartedH4116.14By dayH3119 they 4meetH6298 with darknessH2822, And gropeH4959 at noonH6672 as in the nightH3915.15But He savesH3467 from 5the swordH2719 of their mouthH6310, And 6the poorH34 from the handH3027 of the strongH2389.16So the helplessH1800 hasH1961 hopeH8615, And 7injusticeH5767 has shutH7092 its mouthH6310.
