Job 5:10-22

MSTC(i) 10 Which giveth rain upon the earth, and poureth water upon all things; 11 which setteth up them of low degree, and sendeth prosperity to those that are in heaviness; 12 Which destroyeth the devices of the subtle, so that they are not able to perform the things that they take in hand; 13 which compasseth the wise in their own craftiness, and overthroweth the counsel of the wicked. 14 Insomuch that they run into darkness by fair day, and grope about them at the noonday, like as in the night. 15 And so he delivereth the poor from the sword, from the threatenings of the ungodly, and from the hand of the cruel; 16 that the poor may have hope, and that the mouth of the oppressor may be stopped. 17 "Behold, happy is the man whom God punisheth: therefore, despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty. 18 For though he make a wound, he giveth a medicine again: though he smite, his hand maketh whole again. 19 He delivereth thee out of six troubles, so that in the seventh there can no harm touch thee. 20 In the midst of hunger he saveth thee from death: and when it is war, from the power of the sword. 21 He shall keep thee from the perilous tongue so that when trouble cometh, thou shalt not need to fear. 22 In destruction and dearth thou shalt be merry, and shalt not be afraid for the beasts of the earth:
