1 -“Call out if you please, but who will answer? To which of the holy ones will you turn?
2 -For resentment kills a fool, and envy slays the simple.
3 -I have seen a fool taking root, but suddenly his house was cursed.
4 -His sons are far from safety, crushed in court without a defender.
5 -The hungry consume his harvest, taking it even from the thorns, and the thirsty pant after his wealth.
6 -For distress does not spring from the dust, and trouble does not sprout from the ground.
7 -Yet man is born to trouble as surely as sparks fly upward.
8 -However, if I were you, I would appeal to God and lay my cause before Him—
9 -the One who does great and unsearchable things, wonders without number.
10 -He gives rain to the earth and sends water upon the fields.
11 -He sets the lowly on high, so that mourners are lifted to safety.
12 -He thwarts the schemes of the crafty, so that their hands find no success.
13 -He catches the wise in their craftiness, and sweeps away the plans of the cunning.
14 -They encounter darkness by day and grope at noon as in the night.
15 -He saves the needy from the sword in their mouth and from the clutches of the powerful.
16 -So the poor have hope, and injustice shuts its mouth.
17 -Blessed indeed is the man whom God corrects; so do not despise the discipline of the Almighty.
18 -For He wounds, but He also binds; He strikes, but His hands also heal.
19 -He will rescue you from six calamities; no harm will touch you in seven.
20 -In famine He will redeem you from death, and in battle from the stroke of the sword.
21 -You will be hidden from the scourge of the tongue, and will not fear havoc when it comes.
22 -You will laugh at destruction and famine, and need not fear the beasts of the earth.
23 -For you will have a covenant with the stones of the field, and the wild animals will be at peace with you.
24 -You will know that your tent is secure, and find nothing amiss when inspecting your home.
25 -You will know that your offspring will be many, your descendants like the grass of the earth.
26 -You will come to the grave in full vigor, like a sheaf of grain gathered in season.
27 -Indeed, we have investigated, and it is true! So hear it and know for yourself.”
