Job 5:18 — Meaning and Application

So the poor hath hope, and iniquity stoppeth her mouth.

Behold, happy {is} the man whom God correcteth: therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty:

For he maketh sore, and bindeth up: he woundeth, and his hands make whole.

He shall deliver thee in six troubles: yea, in seven there shall no evil touch thee.

In famine he shall redeem thee from death: and in war from the power of the sword. {power: Heb. hands}
