Job 5:17-27
17 “Behold, ahappy is the person whom God disciplines,
So do not reject the bdiscipline of ▼

▼Lit binds
gives relief; He wounds, but His hands also heal.
19 “In six troubles fHe will save you;
Even in seven, gevil will not touch you.
20 “In hfamine He will redeem you from death,
And iin war, from the power of the sword.
21 “You will be jhidden ▼
▼Lit at
from the scourge of the tongue, lAnd you will not be afraid of violence when it comes.
22 “You will mlaugh at violence and hunger,
nAnd you will not be afraid of ▼
▼Lit animals of the earth
wild animals. 23 “For you will be in league with the stones of the field,
And pthe animals of the field will be at peace with you.
24 “You will know that your qtent is secure,
For you will visit your home and ▼
▼Lit not miss
have nothing missing. 25 “You will also know that your ▼
▼Lit seed
,
tdescendants will be many, And uyour offspring as the grass of the earth.
26 “You will vcome to the grave at a ripe age,
Like the stacking of grain in its season.
27 “Behold this; we have investigated it, and so it is.
Hear it, and know for yourself.”
