BRAGADAYJAH 1248
Eliphaz continues to counsel Job.
Continuing, Eliphaz asked, “What giveth rain upon the earth, and sendeth water
upon the fields? To set up on high those that be low, that those who moan be exalted
to safety. He disappointeth the devices
of the crafty, so that their hands cannot perform their enterprise. He taketh
the wise in their own craftiness, and the counsel of the froward is carried
headlong. They meet with darkness in the daytime, and grope in the noonday as
the night; but he saveth the poor from the sword, from their mouth and from the
hand of the mighty; so the poor hath hope and the iniquity stoppeth her mouth. Behold happy is the man whose 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. Thou shall be
hid from the scourge of the tongue, neither shall thou be afraid of destruction
when it comes. At destruction and famine thou shalt laugh, neither shall thou
be afraid of the beasts, of the earth; for thou shalt be in league with the
stones of the field, and the beasts of the field shall be at peace with thee.
And thou shalt know that thy tabernacle shall be in peace and thou shall visit thy
habitation and shall not sin. Thou shalt know also that thy seed be great, and
thine offspring as the grass of the earth. Thou shalt come to thy grave in a
full age; like a shock of corn cometh in its season. Lo this we have searched
it, so it is, hear it, and know thou it for thy good.
