Job 5:15-20 American Standard Version (ASV)

15. But he saveth from the sword of their mouth, Even the needy from the hand of the mighty.

16. So the poor hath hope, And iniquity stoppeth her mouth.

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

18. For he maketh sore, and bindeth up; He woundeth, and his hands make whole.

19. He will deliver thee in six troubles; Yea, in seven there shall no evil touch thee.

20. In famine he will redeem thee from death; And in war from the power of the sword.
