Job 5:12-17 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

12. God ruins the plans of those who trick others.Then they have no success.

13. He catches wise men in their own clever traps.And the plans of those who try to trick others are swept away.

14. Darkness covers them up in the daytime.At noon they feel around in the dark.

15. God saves needy people from their lies.He saves them from the harm done by powerful people.

16. So the poor people have hope.And those who are unfair are silenced.

17. “The person whom God corrects is happy.So do not hate being corrected by God All-Powerful.
