Job 5:17–27

17 “Look, happy is the human being whom God reproves;

and you must not despise the discipline of Shaddai,

18 for he himselfq wounds, butr he binds up;

he strikes, buts his hands heal.

19 ⌊From⌋t six troubles he will deliver you,

and in seven evil shall not touch you.

20 In famine he will redeem you from death,

and in war from the ⌊power of⌋u the sword.

21 From the scourge of the tongue you shall be hidden,

and you shall not be afraid ofv destruction when it comes.

22 At destruction and faminew you shall laugh,

and you shall not fear the wild animals of the earth.

23 For your covenant will be with the stones of the field,

and the wild animalsx of the field will be at peace with you.

24 And you shall know that your tent is safe,

and you will inspect your fold, and you shall not be missing anything.

25 And you shall know that your offspring are many,

and your descendants like the vegetation of the earth.

26 You shall come in maturity to the grave,

as the raising up of a stack of sheaves in its season.

27 “Look, we have searched this out—it is true;

hear it and know it ⌊yourself⌋.”y
