5:8I would seek unto God, and unto God would I commit my cause:

5:9Which doeth great things and unsearchable; marvellous things without number:

5:10Who giveth rain upon the earth, and sendeth waters upon the fields:

5:11To set up on high those that be low; that those which mourn may be exalted to safety.

5:12He disappointeth the devices of the crafty, so that their hands cannot perform their enterprise.

5:13He taketh the wise in their own craftiness: and the counsel of the froward is carried headlong.

5:14They meet with darkness in the daytime, and grope in the noonday as in the night.

5:15But he saveth the poor from the sword, from their mouth, and from the hand of the mighty.

5:16So the poor hath hope, and iniquity stoppeth her mouth.

5:17Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth: therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty:

5:18For he maketh sore, and bindeth up: he woundeth, and his hands make whole.

5:19He shall deliver thee in six troubles: yea, in seven there shall no evil touch thee.

5:20In famine he shall redeem thee from death: and in war from the power of the sword.
