Job 5:9-16

Leeser(i) 9 Who doth great things which are unsearchable, marvelous things till they are without number; 10 Who giveth rain upon the surface of the earth, and sendeth out waters over the face of the fields; 11 To set up the lowly on high, that those who mourn may rise high to happiness; 12 But who frustrateth the plans of the crafty, so that their hands cannot execute their well-devised counsel; 13 Who catcheth the wise in their own craftiness; and the advise of the perverse is hastened on headlong; 14 By day they meet with darkness, and as though it were night they grope about in the noon of day; 15 But who saveth from the sword, from their mouth, and from the hand of the mighty, the needy one: 16 And so cometh to the indigent hope, and iniquity stoppeth her mouth.
