The Scriptures 1998

Job 5:7-13 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

7. for man is born for trouble, and the sparks fly upward.

8. But as for me, I would seek Ěl, and I would submit my case to Elohim,

9. who is doing great and unsearchable deeds, innumerable wonders,

10. who is giving rain on the earth’s face, and is sending waters on the field’s face;

11. to set the lowly on high, and those who mourn shall be lifted to safety,

12. thwarting the schemes of the crafty, so that their hands do not work effectively;

13. catching the wise in their own craftiness, and the counsel of schemers are swept away.
