2
|
Resentment kills a fool, and envy slays the simple. |
3
|

10
|

11
|

12
|
He thwarts the plans of the crafty, so that their hands achieve no success. |

He saves the needy from the sword in their mouth; he saves them from the clutches of the powerful. |
16

So the poor have hope, and injustice shuts its mouth. |
17
|
"Blessed is the man whom God corrects; so do not despise the discipline of the Almighty. |
18
|
For he wounds, but he also binds up; he injures, but his hands also heal. |
19
|
From six calamities he will rescue you; in seven no harm will befall you. |
20
|
In famine he will ransom you from death, and in battle from the stroke of the sword. |
21
|
You will be protected from the lash of the tongue, and need not fear when destruction comes. |
22
|
You will laugh at destruction and famine, and need not fear the beasts of the earth. |
23
|
For you will have a covenant with the stones of the field, and the wild animals will be at peace with you. |
24
|
You will know that your tent is secure; you will take stock of your property and find nothing missing. |
25
|
You will know that your children will be many, and your descendants like the grass of the earth. |
26
|
You will come to the grave in full vigour, like sheaves gathered in season. |
27
