Job:5:6-27
Seeker Overlay ON
*
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 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 .
*
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 .
