17 Lo! how happy is the man whom God correcteth! Therefore, the chastening of the Almighty, do not thou refuse;
18 For, he, woundeth that he may bind up, He smiteth through, that, his own hands, may heal.
19 In six troubles, he will rescue thee, and, in seven, there shall smite thee no misfortune:
20 In famine, he will ransom thee from death, and in battle from the power of the sword;
21 During the scourge of the tongue, shalt thou be hid, neither shalt thou be afraid of destruction when it cometh;
22 At destruction and at hunger, shalt thou laugh, and, of the wild beast of the earth, be not thou afraid;
23 For, with the stones of the field, shall be thy covenant, and, the wild beast of the field, hath been made thy friend;
24 And thou shalt know that, at peace, is thy tent, and shalt visit thy fold, and miss nothing;
25 And thou shalt know, that numerous is thy seed, and, thine offspring, like the young shoots of the field.
26 Thou shalt come, yet robust, to the grave, as a stack of sheaves mounteth up in its season.
27 Lo! as for this, we have searched it out––so, it is, Hear it, and know, thou, for thyself.
