CHAP. V.
1 The harme of inconsideration. 3 The ende of the wicked is misery. 6 God is to be regarded in affliction. 17 The happy ende of Gods correction.
1Call now, if there be any that wil answere thee, and to which of the Saints wilt thou turne?1
2For wrath killeth the foolish man, and enuy slayeth the silly one.2
3I haue seene the foolish taking roote: but suddenly I cursed his habitation.
6Although affliction commeth not forth of the dust, neither doeth trouble spring out of the ground:6
7Yet man is borne vnto trouble, as the sparkes flie vpward.7
8I would seeke vnto God, and vnto God would I commit my cause:
9Which doth great things & vnsearchable: marueilous things without number.9
10Who giueth raine vpon the earth, and sendeth waters vpon the fields:10
11To set vp on high those that be low; that those which mourne, may be exalted to safetie.11
12Hee disappointeth the deuices of the craftie, so that their hands cannot performe their enterprise.12
13He taketh the wise in their owne craftinesse: and the counsell of the froward is caried headlong.13
14They meete with darkenesse in the day time, and grope in the noone day as in the night.14
15But he saueth the poore from the sword, from their mouth, and from the hand of the mightie.
16So the poore hath hope, and iniquitie stoppeth her mouth.16
17Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth: therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almightie.17
18For he maketh sore, and bindeth vp: he woundeth, and his hands make whole.18
19Hee shall deliuer thee in sixe troubles, yea in seuen there shall no euill touch thee.19
20In famine he shall redeeme thee from death: and in warre from the power of the sword.20
21Thou shalt be hidde from the scourge of the tongue: neither shalt thou be afraid of destruction, when it commeth.21
22At destruction and famine thou shalt laugh: neither shalt thou be afraid of the beasts of the earth.
23For thou shalt be in league with the stones of the field: and the beasts of the field shall be at peace with thee.23
24And thou shalt know that thy tabernacle shall bee in peace; and thou shalt visite thy habitation, and shalt not sinne.24
25Thou shalt know also that thy seede shalbe great, and thine offspring as the grasse of the earth.25
26Thou shalt come to thy graue in a full age, like as a shocke of corne commeth in, in his season.26
27Loe this, wee haue searched it, so it is; heare it, and know thou it for thy good.27
