2 Surely vexation kills the fool, and jealousy slays the simple.

3 ¹I have seen the fool taking root, but suddenly I cursed his dwelling.

4 His children are ²far from safety; they are crushed in ³the gate, and there is no one to deliver them.

5 The hungry eat his harvest, and he takes it even out of thorns,^a and the thirsty pant^b after his^c wealth.

6 For affliction does not come from the dust, nor does trouble sprout from the ground,

7 but man is ⁴born to trouble as the sparks fly upward.

8 "As for me, I would seek God, and to God would I commit my cause,

9 who ⁵does great things and ⁶unsearchable, ⁷marvelous things without number:

10 he gives ⁸rain on the earth and sends waters on the fields;

11 he ⁹sets on high those who are lowly, and those who mourn are lifted to safety.

12 He ¹⁰frustrates the devices of the crafty, so that their hands achieve no success.

13 He ¹¹catches the wise in their own craftiness, and the schemes of the wily are brought to a quick end.

14 They meet with darkness in the daytime and ¹²grope at noonday as in the night.

15 But he ¹³saves the needy from the sword of their mouth and from the hand of the mighty.

16 So the poor have hope, and ¹⁴injustice shuts her mouth.

17 "Behold, ¹⁵blessed is the one whom God reproves; therefore ¹⁶despise not the discipline of the ¹⁷Almighty.

18 For he wounds, but he ¹⁸binds up; he ¹⁹shatters, but his hands heal.

19 He will ²⁰deliver you from six troubles; in seven no ²¹evil^d shall touch you.

20 ²²In famine he will redeem you from death, and in war from the power of the sword.

21 You shall be ²³hidden from the lash of the tongue, and shall not fear destruction when it comes.

22 At destruction and famine you shall laugh, and shall not fear ²⁴the beasts of the earth.

23 For you shall be in league with the stones of the field, and the beasts of the field shall be at peace with you.

24 You shall know that your ²⁵tent is at peace, and you shall inspect your fold and miss nothing.

25 You shall know also that your ²⁶offspring shall be many, and your descendants as ²⁷the grass of the earth.

26 You shall come to your grave in ²⁸ripe old age, like a sheaf gathered up in its season.

27 Behold, this we have ²⁹searched out; it is true. Hear, and know it for your good."^e
