Job Is Corrected by God

“Call now; is there any one who will answer you?
To which of the holy ones will you turn?
Surely vexation kills the fool,
    and jealousy slays the simple.
I have seen the fool taking root,
    but suddenly I cursed his dwelling.
His sons are far from safety,
    they are crushed in the gate,
    and there is no one to deliver them.
His harvest the hungry eat,
    and he takes it even out of thorns;[a]
    and the thirsty[b] pant after his[c] wealth.
For affliction does not come from the dust,
    nor does trouble sprout from the ground;
but man is born to trouble
    as the sparks fly upward.

“As for me, I would seek God,
    and to God would I commit my cause;
who does great things and unsearchable,
    marvelous things without number:
10 he gives rain upon the earth
    and sends waters upon the fields;
11 he sets on high those who are lowly,
    and those who mourn are lifted to safety.

17 “Behold, happy is the man whom God reproves;
    therefore despise not the chastening of the Almighty.
18 For he wounds, but he binds up;
    he smites, but his hands heal.
19 He will deliver you from six troubles;
    in seven there shall no evil touch you.
20 In famine he will redeem you from death,
    and in war from the power of the sword.
21 You shall be hid from the scourge of the tongue,
