Job 5:10 - John Wesley's Notes

Job 5:10

Compare all

8 “But as for me, I would seek God,
And to God I would commit my cause—

9 Who does great things, and unsearchable,
Marvelous things without number.

10 ^aHe gives rain on the earth,
And sends waters on the fields.

11 ^aHe sets on high those who are lowly,
And those who mourn are lifted to safety.

12 ^aHe frustrates the devices of the crafty,
So that their hands cannot carry out their plans.

13 He catches the ^awise in their own craftiness,
And the counsel of the cunning comes quickly upon them.

14 They meet with darkness in the daytime,
And grope at noontime as in the night.

15 But ^aHe saves the needy from the sword,
From the mouth of the mighty,
And from their hand.

16 ^aSo the poor have hope,
And injustice shuts her mouth.

17 “Behold,^a happy is the man whom God corrects;
Therefore do not despise the chastening of the Almighty.

18 ^aFor He bruises, but He binds up;
He wounds, but His hands make whole.

19 ^aHe shall deliver you in six troubles,
Yes, in seven ^bno evil shall touch you.

20 ^aIn famine He shall redeem you from death,
And in war from the¹ power of the sword.

21 ^aYou shall be hidden from the scourge of the tongue,
And you shall not be afraid of destruction when it comes.

22 You shall laugh at destruction and famine,
And ^ayou shall not be afraid of the ^bbeasts of the earth.

23 ^aFor you shall have a covenant with the stones of the field,
And the beasts of the field shall be at peace with you.

24 You shall know that your tent is in peace;
You shall visit your dwelling and find nothing amiss.
