[1]CallH7121[H8798] now, if there beH3426 any that will answerH6030[H8802] thee; and to which of the saintsH6918 wilt thou turnH6437?[H8799]
[2]For wrathH3708 killethH2026[H8799] the foolish manH191, and envyH7068 slayethH4191[H8686] the silly oneH6601.[H8802]
[3]I have seenH7200[H8804] the foolishH191 taking rootH8327[H8688]: but suddenlyH6597 I cursedH5344[H8799] his habitationH5116.
[4]His childrenH1121 are farH7368[H8799] from safetyH3468, and they are crushedH1792[H8691] in the gateH8179, neither is there any to deliverH5337 themH8688.
[5]Whose harvestH7105 the hungryH7457 eateth upH398[H8799], and takethH3947[H8799] it even outH413 of the thornsH6791, and the robberH6782 swalloweth upH7602[H8804] their substanceH2428.
[6]Although afflictionH205 cometh not forthH3318[H8799] of the dustH6083, neither doth troubleH5999 spring outH6779[H8799] of the groundH127;
[7]Yet manH120 is bornH3205[H8795] unto troubleH5999, as the sparksH1121[H7565] flyH5774[H8800] upwardH1361.[H8686]
[8]I would seekH199[H1875][H8799] unto GodH410, and unto GodH430 would I commitH7760[H8799] my causeH1700:
[9]Which doethH6213[H8802] great thingsH1419 and unsearchableH369[H2714]; marvellous thingsH6381[H8737] without numberH4557:
[10]Who givethH5414[H8802] rainH4306 uponH6440 the earthH776, and sendethH7971[H8802] watersH4325 uponH6440 the fieldsH2351:
[11]To set upH7760[H8800] on highH4791 those that be lowH8217; that those which mournH6937[H8802] may be exaltedH7682[H8804] to safetyH3468.
[12]He disappointethH6565[H8688] the devicesH4284 of the craftyH6175, so that their handsH3027 cannot performH6213[H8799] their enterpriseH8454.
[13]He takethH3920[H8802] the wiseH2450 in their own craftinessH6193: and the counselH6098 of the frowardH6617[H8737] is carried headlongH4116.[H8737]
[14]They meetH6298[H8762] with darknessH2822 in the daytimeH3119, and gropeH4959[H8762] in the noondayH6672 as in the nightH3915.
[15]But he savethH3467[H8686] the poorH34 from the swordH2719, from their mouthH6310, and from the handH3027 of the mightyH2389.
[16]So the poorH1800 hath hopeH8615, and iniquityH5766 stoppethH7092[H8804] her mouthH6310.
[17]Behold, happyH835 is the manH582 whom GodH433 correctethH3198[H8686]: therefore despiseH3988[H8799] not thou the chasteningH4148 of the AlmightyH7706:
[18]For he maketh soreH3510[H8686], and bindeth upH2280[H8799]: he woundethH4272[H8799], and his handsH3027 make wholeH7495.[H8799]
[19]He shall deliverH5337[H8686] thee in sixH8337 troublesH6869: yea, in sevenH7651 there shall no evilH7451 touchH5060 theeH8799.
[20]In famineH7458 he shall redeemH6299[H8804] thee from deathH4194: and in warH4421 from the powerH3027 of the swordH2719.
[21]Thou shalt be hidH2244[H8735] from the scourgeH7752 of the tongueH3956: neither shalt thou be afraidH3372[H8799] of destructionH7701 when it comethH935.[H8799]
[22]At destructionH7701 and famineH3720 thou shalt laughH7832[H8799]: neither shalt thou be afraidH3372[H8799] of the beastsH2416 of the earthH776.
[23]For thou shalt be in leagueH1285 with the stonesH68 of the fieldH7704: and the beastsH2416 of the fieldH7704 shall be at peaceH7999 with theeH8717.
[24]And thou shalt knowH3045[H8804] that thy tabernacleH168 shall be in peaceH7965; and thou shalt visitH6485[H8804] thy habitationH5116, and shalt not sinH2398.[H8799]
[25]Thou shalt knowH3045[H8804] also that thy seedH2233 shall be greatH7227, and thine offspringH6631 as the grassH6212 of the earthH776.
[26]Thou shalt comeH935[H8799] to thy graveH6913 in a full ageH3624, like as a shock of cornH1430 cometh inH5927[H8800] in his seasonH6256.
[27]Lo this, we have searchedH2713[H8804] it, so it is; hearH8085[H8798] it, and knowH3045 thou it for thy goodH8798.
