Job 5:15-27 [15]But [God] saves [the fatherless] from the sword of their mouth, and the needy from the hand of the mighty. [16]So the poor have hope, and iniquity shuts her mouth. [17]Happy and fortunate is the man whom God reproves; so do not despise or reject the correction of the Almighty [subjecting you to trial and suffering]. [18]For He wounds, but He binds up; He smites, but His hands heal. [19]He will rescue you in six troubles; in seven nothing that is evil [for you] will touch you. [20]In famine He will redeem you from death, and in war from the power of the sword. [21]You shall be hidden from the scourge of the tongue, neither shall you be afraid of destruction when it comes. [22]At destruction and famine you shall laugh, neither shall you be afraid of the living creatures of the earth. [23]For you shall be in league with the stones of the field, and the beasts of the field shall be at peace with you. [24]And you shall know that your tent shall be in peace, and you shall visit your fold and your dwelling and miss nothing [from them]. [25]You shall know also that your children shall be many, and your offspring as the grass of the earth. [26]You shall come to your grave in ripe old age, and as a shock of grain goes up [to the threshing floor] in its season. [27]This is what we have searched out; it is true. Hear and heed it and know for yourself [for your good].
