Chapter 5

1


 

  Call now if there be any that will answer thee, and turn to some of the saints.  

 

 

--

2


 

  Anger indeed killeth the foolish, and envy slayeth the little one.  

 

 

--

3


 

  I have seen a fool with a strong root, and I cursed his beauty immediately.  

 

 

--

4


 

  His children shall be far from safety, and shall be destroyed in the gate, and there shall be none to deliver them.  

 

 

--

5


 

  Whose harvest the hungry shall eat, and the armed man shall take him by violence, and the thirsty shall drink up his riches.  

 

 

--

6


 

  Nothing upon earth is done without a voice cause, and sorrow doth not spring out of the ground.  

 

 

--

7


 

  Man is born to labour and the bird to fly.  

 

 

--

8


 

  Wherefore I will pray to the Lord, and address my speech to God:  

 

 

--

9


 

  Who doth great things and unsearchable and wonderful things without number:  

 

 

--

10


 

  Who giveth rain upon the face of the earth, and watereth all things with waters:  

 

 

--

11


 

  Who setteth up the humble on high, and comforteth with health those that mourn.  

 

 

--

12


 

  Who bringeth to nought the designs of the malignant, so that their hands cannot accomplish what they had begun:  

 

 

--

13


 

  Who catcheth the wise in their craftiness, and disappointeth the counsel of the wicked:  

 

 

--

14


 

  They shall meet with darkness in the day, and grope at noonday as in the night.  

 

 

--

15


 

  But he shall save the needy from the sword of their mouth, and the poor from the hand of the violent.  

 

 

--

16


 

  And to the needy there shall he hope, but iniquity shall draw in her mouth.  

 

 

--

17


 

  Blessed is the mall whom God correcteth: refuse not therefore the chastising of the lord:  

 

 

--

18


 

  For he woundeth, and cureth: he striketh, and his hands shall heal.  

 

 

--

19


 

  In six troubles he shall deliver thee, and in the seventh, evil shall not touch thee.  

 

 

--

20


 

  In famine he shall deliver thee from death: and in battle, from the hand of the sword.  

 

 

--

21


 

  Thou shalt he hidden from the scourge of the tongue: and thou shalt not fear calamity when it cometh.  

 

 

--

22


 

  In destruction and famine then shalt laugh: and thou shalt not be afraid of the beasts of the earth.  

 

 

--

23


 

  But thou shalt have a covenant with the stones of the lands, and the beasts of the earth shall be at pence with thee.  

 

 

--

24


 

  And thou shalt know that thy tabernacle is in peace, and visiting thy beauty thou shalt not sin.  

 

 

--

25


 

  Thou shalt know also that thy seed shall be multiplied, and thy offspring like the grass of the earth.  

 

 

--

26


 

  Thou shalt enter into the grave in abundance, as a heap of wheat is brought in its season.  

 

 

--

27


 

  Behold, this is even so, as we have searched oat: which thou having heard, consider it thoroughly in thy mind.
