Job 5:17-27 - Blessing Comes When God Corrects You
17 Behold, happy the man God shall rebuke him: and thou shalt not reject the correction of the Almighty: 18 For he will cause pain, and he will bind up: he will smite and his hands will heal. 19 In six straits he will deliver thee, and in seven, evil shall not touch upon thee. 20 In famine he redeemed thee from death, and in war from the hands of the sword. 21 In the scourge of the tongue thou shalt be hid, and thou shalt not be afraid of desolation when it shall come. 22 At desolation and at hunger thou shalt laugh, and from the beasts of the earth thou shalt not fear. 23 For with the stones of the field they covenant, and the beast of the field was at peace with thee. 24 And thou knewest that thy tent is peace, and thou reviewedst thy dwelling, and thou shalt not sin. 25 And thou knewest the multitude of thy seed, and thine offspring as the grass of the earth. 26 Thou shalt come in old age to thy grave, as the ascending of a heap of sheaves in its time.
27 Behold this, we searched it out, so it is: hear it, and know thou for thyself.
