Job 36:5-15

5Behold, GodH410 is mightyH3524, and despisethH3988 not any: he is mightyH3524 in strengthH3581 and wisdomH3820.1

6He preserveth not the lifeH2421 of the wickedH7563: but givethH5414 rightH4941 to the poorH6041.2

7He withdrawethH1639 not his eyesH5869 from the righteousH6662: but with kingsH4428 are they on the throneH3678; yea, he doth establishH3427 them for everH5331, and they are exaltedH1361.

8And if they be boundH631 in fettersH2131, and be holdenH3920 in cordsH2256 of afflictionH6040;

9Then he shewethH5046 them their workH6467, and their transgressionsH6588 that they have exceededH1396.

10He openethH1540 also their earH241 to disciplineH4148, and commandethH559 that they returnH7725 from iniquityH205.

11If they obeyH8085 and serveH5647 him, they shall spendH3615 their daysH3117 in prosperityH2896, and their yearsH8141 in pleasuresH5273.

12But if they obeyH8085 not, they shall perishH5674 by the swordH7973, and they shall dieH1478 without knowledgeH1847.3

13But the hypocritesH2611 in heartH3820 heap upH7760 wrathH639: they cryH7768 not when he bindethH631 them.

14TheyH5315 dieH4191 in youthH5290, and their lifeH2416 is among the uncleanH6945.45

15He deliverethH2502 the poorH6041 in his afflictionH6040, and openethH1540 their earsH241 in oppressionH3906.6
