Job 5:16-18

New Living Translation

¹⁶ And so at last the poor have hope,
    and the snapping jaws of the wicked are shut.

¹⁷ “But consider the joy of those corrected by God!
    Do not despise the discipline of the Almighty when you sin.
¹⁸ For though he wounds, he also bandages.
    He strikes, but his hands also heal.
