  5:1 ¶
But call, if any one will hearken to thee, or if thou shalt see any of the holy angels. |
|
5:1 ¶
Call°°
now,°
if there be°
any that will answer°°
thee; and to°
which°
of the saints°°
wilt thou turn?°° |
|
5:2
For wrath destroys the foolish one, and envy slays him that has gone astray. |
|
5:2
For°
wrath°
killeth°°
the foolish°
man,°
and envy°
slayeth°°
the silly°
one.°° |
|
5:3
And I have seen foolish ones taking root: but suddenly their habitation was devoured. |
|
5:3
I°
have seen°°
the foolish°
taking root:°°
but suddenly°
I cursed°°
his habitation.° |
|
5:4
Let their children be far from safety, and let them be crushed at the doors of vile men, and let there be no deliverer. |
|
5:4
His children°
are far°°
from safety,°°
and they are crushed°°
in the gate,°
neither°
[is there] any to deliver°°
[them]. |
|
5:5
For what they have collected, the just shall eat; but they shall not be delivered out of calamities: let their strength be utterly exhausted. |
|
5:5
Whose°
harvest°
the hungry°
eateth up,°°
and taketh°°
it even out°
of°
the thorns,°°
and the robber°
swalloweth up°°
their substance.° |
|
5:6
For labour cannot by any means come out of the earth, nor shall trouble spring out of the mountains: |
|
5:6
Although°
affliction°
cometh not forth°°°
of the dust,°°
neither°
doth trouble°
spring°
out°°
of the ground;°° |
|
5:7
yet man is born to labour, and [even so] the vulture's young seek the high places. |
|
5:7
Yet°
man°
is born°°
unto trouble,°
as the sparks°°
fly°°
upward.°° |
|
5:8
Nevertheless I will beseech the Lord, and will call upon the Lord, the sovereign of all; |
|
5:8
I°
would seek°°°
unto°
El,°
and unto°
Elohim°
would I commit°°
my cause:° |
|
5:9
who does great things and untraceable, glorious things also, and marvellous, of which there is no number: |
|
5:9
Which doeth°°
great things°
and unsearchable;°°
marvellous things°°
without°°
number:° |
|
5:10
who gives rain upon the earth, sending water on the earth: |
|
5:10
Who giveth°°
rain°
upon°°
the earth,°
and sendeth°°
waters°
upon°°
the fields:° |
|
5:11
who exalts the lowly, and raises up them that are lost: |
|
5:11
To set up°°
on high°
those that be low;°
that those which mourn°°
may be exalted°°
to safety.° |
|
5:12
frustrating the counsels of the crafty, and their hands shall not perform the truth: |
|
5:12
He disappointeth°°
the devices°
of the crafty,°
so that their hands°
cannot°
perform°°
[their] enterprise.° |
|
5:13
who takes the wise in their wisdom, and subverts the counsel of the crafty |
|
5:13
He taketh°°
the wise°
in their own craftiness:°
and the counsel°
of the froward°°
is carried headlong.°° |
|
5:14
In the day darkness shall come upon them, and let them grope in the noon-day even as in the night: |
|
5:14
They meet°°
with darkness°
in the daytime,°
and grope°°
in the noonday°
as in the night.° |
|
5:15
and let them perish in war, and let the weak escape from the hand of the mighty. |
|
5:15
But he saveth°°
the poor°
from the sword,°°
from their mouth,°°
and from the hand°°
of the mighty.° |
|
5:16
And let the weak have hope, but the mouth of the unjust be stopped. |
|
5:16
So the poor°
hath°
hope,°
and iniquity°
stoppeth°°
her mouth.° |
|
5:17
But blessed [is] the man whom the Lord has reproved; and reject not thou the chastening of the Almighty. |
|
5:17
Behold,°
happy°
[is] the man°
whom Eloah°
correcteth:°°
therefore despise°°
not°
thou the chastening°
of Shaddai:° |
|
5:18
For he causes [a man] to be in pain, and restores [him] again: he smites, and his hands heal. |
|
5:18
For°
he°
maketh sore,°°
and bindeth up:°°
he woundeth,°°
and his hands°
make whole.°° |
|
5:19
Six time he shall deliver thee out of distresses: and in the seventh harm shall not touch thee. |
|
5:19
He shall deliver°°
thee in six°
troubles:°
yea, in seven°
there shall no°
evil°
touch°°
thee. |
|
5:20
In famine he shall deliver thee from death: and in war he shall free thee from the power of the sword. |
|
5:20
In famine°
he shall redeem°°
thee from death:°°
and in war°
from the power°°
of the sword.° |
|
5:21
He shall hide thee from the scourge of the tongue: and thou shalt not be afraid of coming evils. |
|
5:21
Thou shalt be hid°°
from the scourge°
of the tongue:°
neither°
shalt thou be afraid°°
of destruction°°
when°
it cometh.°° |
|
5:22
Thou shalt laugh at the unrighteous and the lawless: and thou shalt not be afraid of wild beasts. |
|
5:22
At destruction°
and famine°
thou shalt laugh:°°
neither°
shalt thou be afraid°°
of the beasts°°
of the earth.° |
|
5:23
For the wild beasts of the field shall be at peace with thee. |
|
5:23
For°
thou shalt be in league°
with°
the stones°
of the field:°
and the beasts°
of the field°
shall be at peace°°
with thee. |
|
5:24
Then shalt thou know that thy house shall be at peace, and the provision for thy tabernacle shall not fail. |
|
5:24
And thou shalt know°°
that thy tabernacle°
[shall be] in peace;°
and thou shalt visit°°
thy habitation,°
and shalt not sin.°°° |
|
5:25
And thou shalt know that thy seed [shall be] abundant; and thy children shall be like the herbage of the field. |
|
5:25
Thou shalt know°°
also that°
thy seed°
[shall be] great,°
and thine offspring°
as the grass°
of the earth.° |
|
5:26
And thou shalt come to the grave like ripe corn reaped in its season, or as a heap of the corn-flour collected in proper time. |
|
5:26
Thou shalt come°°
to°
[thy] grave°
in a full age,°
like as a shock of corn°
cometh in°°
in his season.° |
|
5:27
Behold, we have thus sought out these matters; these are what we have heard: but do thou reflect with thyself, if thou hast done anything [wrong]. |
|
5:27
Lo°
this,°
we have searched°°
it, so°
it°
[is]; hear°°
it, and know°°
thou°
[it] for thy good. |
