Job 5:8-16
8“But as for me, I would 1seekH1875 GodH410, And I would makeH7760 my pleaH1700 beforeH413 GodH430,9Who 2doesH6213 greatH1419 and unsearchableH369H2714 thingsH2714, 3WondersH6381 withoutH5704H369 numberH4557.10He 4givesH5414 rainH4306 on the earthH776, And sendsH7971 waterH4325 on the fieldsH2351,11So that 5He setsH7760 on highH4791 those who are lowlyH8217, And those who mournH6937 are liftedH7682 to safetyH3468.12He 6frustratesH6565 the schemesH4284 of the shrewdH6175, So that their handsH3027 cannotH3808 attainH6213 successH8454.13He 7capturesH3920 the wiseH2450 by their own clevernessH6193, And the adviceH6098 of the cunningH6617 is quicklyH4116 thwartedH4116.14By dayH3119 they 8meetH6298 with darknessH2822, And gropeH4959 at noonH6672 as in the nightH3915.15But He savesH3467 from 9the swordH2719 of their mouthH6310, And 10the poorH34 from the handH3027 of the strongH2389.16So the helplessH1800 hasH1961 hopeH8615, And 11injusticeH5767 has shutH7092 its mouthH6310.
