Job 5:10-19
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 5
10He gives rain on the earth, And sends water on the fields, 11So that He sets on high those who are lowly, And those who mourn are lifted to safety. 12He frustrates the schemes of the shrewd, So that their hands cannot attain success. 13He captures the wise by their own cleverness, And the advice of the cunning is quickly thwarted. 14By day they meet with darkness, And grope at noon as in the night. 15But He saves from the sword of their mouth, And the poor from the hand of the strong. 16So the helpless has hope, And injustice has shut its mouth. 17'Behold, happy is the person whom God disciplines, So do not reject the discipline of the Almighty. 18For He inflicts pain, and gives relief; He wounds, but His hands also heal. 19In six troubles He will save you; Even in seven, evil will not touch you.King James Version
