|
|
|
Call now, if there be any that will answer thee; and to which
of the saints wilt thou turn?
|
|
|
For wrath killeth the foolish man, and envy slayeth the silly
one.
|
|
|
I have seen the foolish taking root: but suddenly I cursed his
habitation.
|
|
|
His children are far from safety, and they are crushed in the
gate, neither is there any to deliver them.
|
|
|
Whose harvest the hungry eateth up, and taketh it even out of
the thorns, and the robber swalloweth up their substance.
|
|
|
Although affliction cometh not forth of the dust, neither doth
trouble spring out of the ground;
|
|
|
Yet man is born unto trouble, as the sparks fly upward.
|
|
|
I would seek unto God, and unto God would I commit my cause:
|
|
|
Which doeth great things and unsearchable; marvellous things
without number:
|
|
|
Who giveth rain upon the earth, and sendeth waters upon the
fields:
|
|
|
To set up on high those that be low; that those which mourn
may be exalted to safety.
|
|
|
He disappointeth the devices of the crafty, so that their
hands cannot perform their enterprise.
|
|
|
He taketh the wise in their own craftiness: and the counsel of
the froward is carried headlong.
|
|
|
They meet with darkness in the day time, and grope in the
noonday as in the night.
|
|
|
But he saveth the poor from the sword, from their mouth, and
from the hand of the mighty.
|
|
|
So the poor hath hope, and iniquity stoppeth her mouth.
|
|
|
Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth: therefore
despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty:
|
|
|
For he maketh sore, and bindeth up: he woundeth, and his hands
make whole.
|
|
|
He shall deliver thee in six troubles: yea, in seven there
shall no evil touch thee.
|
|
|
In famine he shall redeem thee from death: and in war from the
power of the sword.
|
|
|
Thou shalt be hid from the scourge of the tongue: neither
shalt thou be afraid of destruction when it cometh.
|
|
|
At destruction and famine thou shalt laugh: neither shalt thou
be afraid of the beasts of the earth.
|
|
|
For thou shalt be in league with the stones of the field: and
the beasts of the field shall be at peace with thee.
|
|
|
And thou shalt know that thy tabernacle shall be in peace; and
thou shalt visit thy habitation, and shalt not sin.
|
|
|
Thou shalt know also that thy seed shall be great, and thine
offspring as the grass of the earth.
|
|
|
Thou shalt come to thy grave in a full age, like as a shock of
corn cometh in in his season.
|
|
|
Lo this, we have searched it, so it is; hear it, and know thou
it for thy good.
