Job 5:9-16

9He does great things too marvelous to understand. He performs countless miracles.

10He gives rain for the earth and water for the fields.

11He gives prosperity to the poor and protects those who suffer.

12He frustrates the plans of schemers so the work of their hands will not succeed.

13He traps the wise in their own cleverness so their cunning schemes are thwarted.

14They find it is dark in the daytime, and they grope at noon as if it were night.

15He rescues the poor from the cutting words of the strong, and rescues them from the clutches of the powerful.

16And so at last the poor have hope, and the snapping jaws of the wicked are shut.
