5:1 Call now, if there be any that will answer thee; and to which of the saints wilt thou turn?
5:2 For wrath killeth the foolish man, and
envy slayeth the silly one.
5:3 I have seen the foolish taking root: but suddenly I cursed his habitation.
5:4 His children are far from safety, and they are crushed in the gate, neither is there
any to deliver them.
5:5 Whose harvest the hungry eateth up, and taketh it even out of the thorns, and the
robber swalloweth up their substance.
5:6 Although affliction cometh not forth of the dust, neither doth trouble spring out of
the ground;
5:7 Yet man is born unto trouble, as the
sparks fly upward.
5:8 I would seek unto God, and unto God would I commit my cause:
5:9 Which doeth great things and unsearchable; marvellous things without number:
5:10 Who giveth rain upon the earth, and sendeth waters upon the fields:
5:11 To set up on high those that be low; that
those which mourn may be exalted to safety.
5:12 He disappointeth the devices of the crafty, so that their hands cannot perform their
enterprise.
5:13 He taketh the wise in their own craftiness: and the counsel of the froward is carried
headlong.
5:14 They meet with darkness in the day time, and grope in the noonday as in the night.
5:15 But he saveth the poor from the sword, from their mouth, and from the hand of the
mighty.
5:16 So the poor hath hope, and iniquity stoppeth her mouth.
5:17 Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth: therefore despise not thou the
chastening of the Almighty:
5:18 For he maketh sore, and bindeth up: he
woundeth, and his hands make whole.
5:19 He shall deliver thee in six troubles: yea, in seven there shall no evil touch thee.
5:20 In famine he shall redeem thee from death: and in war from the power of the sword.
5:21 Thou shalt be hid from the scourge of the tongue: neither shalt thou be afraid of
destruction when it cometh.
5:22 At destruction and famine thou shalt laugh: neither shalt thou be afraid of the
beasts of the earth.
5:23 For thou shalt be in league with the stones of the field: and the beasts of the field
shall be at peace with thee.
5:24 And thou shalt know that thy tabernacle shall be in peace; and thou shalt visit thy
habitation, and shalt not sin.
5:25 Thou shalt know also that thy seed shall be great, and thine offspring as the grass
of the earth.
5:26 Thou shalt come to thy grave in a full age, like as a shock of corn cometh in in his
season.
5:27 Lo this, we have searched it, so it is; hear it, and know thou it for thy good.
