Job 5:6-11

6Although afflictionH205 cometh not forthH3318 of the dustH6083, neither doth troubleH5999 spring outH6779 of the groundH127;1

7Yet manH120 is bornH3205 unto troubleH5999, as the sparksH7565H1121 flyH5774 upwardH1361.23

8I would seekH1875H199 unto GodH410, and unto GodH430 would I commitH7760 my causeH1700:

9Which doethH6213 great thingsH1419 and unsearchableH2714H369; marvellous thingsH6381 without numberH4557:45

10Who givethH5414 rainH4306 uponH6440 the earthH776, and sendethH7971 watersH4325 uponH6440 the fieldsH2351:6

11To set upH7760 on highH4791 those that be lowH8217; that those which mournH6937 may be exaltedH7682 to safetyH3468.
