Chapter 5
Job MKJV 5:1  Call now, is there anyone who will answer you? And to which of the saints will you turn?
Job MKJV 5:2  For vexation kills the fool, and envy slays the simple one.
Job MKJV 5:3  I have seen the fool taking root, but suddenly I cursed his dwelling place.
Job MKJV 5:4  His children are far from safety, and they are crushed in the gate, nor is there any to deliver them.
Job MKJV 5:5  Their harvest the hungry eats, and takes it even out of the thorns; and the snare swallows up their wealth.
Job MKJV 5:6  For affliction does not come forth from the dust, nor does trouble spring up out of the ground;
Job MKJV 5:7  but man is born to trouble, as the sparks fly upward.
Job MKJV 5:8  Truly, I would seek to God, and to God I would put my plea,
Job MKJV 5:9  Who is doing great things, even beyond searching; marvelous things without number,
Job MKJV 5:10  who gives rain on the earth and sends waters on the field,
Job MKJV 5:11  to set on high those who are low, so that those who mourn may be lifted up to safety;
Job MKJV 5:12  frustrating the plans of the crafty, nor did their hands do wisely.
Job MKJV 5:13  He takes the wise in their own craftiness; and the counsel of the wily is carried headlong.
Job MKJV 5:14  They meet with darkness in the day time, and grope in the noonday as in the night.
Job MKJV 5:15  But He saves the poor from the sword, from their mouth, and from the hand of the mighty.
Job MKJV 5:16  And there is hope for the weak, and injustice shuts her mouth.
Job MKJV 5:17  Behold, blessed is the man whom God corrects. Therefore do not despise the chastening of the Almighty.
Job MKJV 5:18  For He makes sore, and binds up; He wounds, and His hands make whole.
Job MKJV 5:19  He will deliver you in six troubles; yea, in seven no evil shall touch you.
Job MKJV 5:20  In famine He shall redeem you from death; and in war from the power of the sword.
Job MKJV 5:21  You shall be hidden from the whip of the tongue; neither shall you be afraid of robbery when it comes.
Job MKJV 5:22  At destruction and famine you shall laugh; neither shall you be afraid of the beasts of the earth.
Job MKJV 5:23  For you shall be in covenant with the stones of the field; and the beasts of the field shall be at peace with you.
Job MKJV 5:24  And you shall know that your tent is in peace; and you shall visit your fold, and shall miss nothing.
Job MKJV 5:25  And you shall know that your seed will be numerous, and your offspring as the grass of the earth.
Job MKJV 5:26  You shall come to your grave in a full age, like a shock of grain comes in its season.
Job MKJV 5:27  Behold this: we have searched it; it is so. Hear it and know for yourself.
