Job:5:8-19
Seeker Overlay ON
*
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 daytime ,
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 .
