Job 5:17–27

¹⁷Behold, ^thappy is the man whom God correcteth:

Therefore ^udespise not thou the chastening of ^xthe Almighty:

¹⁸For he maketh sore, and bindeth up:

^yHe woundeth, and his hands make whole.

^19zHe shall deliver thee in ^asix troubles:

Yea, in ^aseven ^bthere shall no evil touch thee.

^20cIn famine he shall redeem thee from death:

And in war ^†from the power of the sword.

^21dThou shalt be hid ^||from the scourge of the tongue:

Neither shalt thou be afraid of destruction when it cometh.

²²At destruction and ^efamine thou shalt ^flaugh:

^gNeither shalt thou be afraid of the beasts of the earth.

²³For thou shalt be ^hin league with the stones of the field:

And ^hthe beasts of the field shall be at peace with thee.

²⁴And thou shalt know ^||that thy tabernacle shall be in peace;

And thou shalt visit thy habitation, and shalt not ^||sin.

²⁵Thou shalt know also that ⁱthy seed shall be ^||great,

And thine ^joffspring ^kas the grass of the earth.

²⁶Thou shalt come to thy grave in ^la full age,

Like as ^ma shock of corn ^†cometh in in his season.

²⁷Lo this, we have searched it, so it is;

Hear it, and know thou it ^†for thy good.
