Job 5:11-23 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

11. Who setteth up the humble on high, and comforteth with health those that mourn.

12. Who bringeth to nought the designs of the malignant, so that their hands cannot accomplish what they had begun:

13. Who catcheth the wise in their craftiness, and disappointeth the counsel of the wicked:

14. They shall meet with darkness in the day, and grope at noonday as in the night.

15. But he shall save the needy from the sword of their mouth, and the poor from the hand of the violent.

16. And to the needy there shall he hope, but iniquity shall draw in her mouth.

17. Blessed is the mall whom God correcteth: refuse not therefore the chastising of the lord:

18. For he woundeth, and cureth: he striketh, and his hands shall heal.

19. In six troubles he shall deliver thee, and in the seventh, evil shall not touch thee.

20. In famine he shall deliver thee from death: and in battle, from the hand of the sword.

21. Thou shalt he hidden from the scourge of the tongue: and thou shalt not fear calamity when it cometh.

22. In destruction and famine then shalt laugh: and thou shalt not be afraid of the beasts of the earth.

23. But thou shalt have a covenant with the stones of the lands, and the beasts of the earth shall be at pence with thee.
