욥기 5장 Coverdale Bible
- 1 Name me one els, yf thou canst fynde eny: yee loke aboute the, vpon eny of the holy men.
- 2 As for the foolish man displeasure kylleth him, and anger slayeth ye ignoraunt.
- 3 I haue sene my self, when the foolish was depe roted, that his bewty was sodely destroyed:
- 4 that his children were without prosperite or health: that they were slayne in the dore, and no ma to delyuer them:
- 5 that his haruest was eaten vp off the hungrie: that the weapened man had spoyled it, and that the thurstie had droncke vp his riches. It is not the earth that bryngeth forth trauayle,
- 6 nether commeth sorow out of ye groude:
- 7 but it is man, that is borne vnto mysery, like as the byrde for to fle.
- 8 But now will I speake off the LORDE, and talke of God:
- 9 which doth thinges, that are vnsearcheable, and marueles without nobre:
- 10 Which geueth rayne vpo the earth, and poureth water vpon all thinges:
- 11 which setteth vp them of lowe degre, and sendeth prosperite, to those that are in heuynesse:
- 12 Which destroyeth the deuyces of the sotyll, so that they are not able to perfourme the thynges that they take in hode:
- 13 which compaseth ye wyse in their owne craftynesse, and ouertroweth the councell of the wicked:
- 14 In so moch that they runne in to darcknesse by fayre daye, and grope aboute them at the noone daye, like as in the night.
- 15 And so he delyuereth the poore from the swearde, from their mouth, and from the hode of the cruell:
- 16 that the poore maye haue hope, & that the mouth of the oppressoure maye be stopped.
- 17 Beholde, happie is the man, whom God punysheth: therfore, despyse not thou ye chastenynge of the Allmighty.
- 18 For though he make a wounde, he geueth a medicyne agayne: though he smyte, his honde maketh whole agayne.
- 19 He delyuereth the out of sixe troubles, so that in the seuenth there can no harme touch the.
- 20 In the myddest of honger he saueth ye from death: and when it is warre, from the power of the swearde.
- 21 He shall kepe the from the perlous tonge so that when trouble commeth, thou shalt not nede to feare.
- 22 In destruccion and derth thou shalt be mery, and shalt not be afrayed for the beastes of the earth:
- 23 But the castels in the londe shal be confederate with the, & the beastes of the felde shall geue the peace:
- 24 Yee thou shalt se, that thy dwellynge place shalbe in rest: thou shalt beholde thy substaunce, and be nomore punyshed for synne.
- 25 Thou shalt se also, that thy sede shall encreace, and that thy posterite shalbe as the grasse vpon the earth.
- 26 Thou shalt come to thy graue in a fayre age, like as ye corne sheeues are brought in to the barne in due season.
- 27 Lo, this is the matter, as we oure selues haue proued by experience. Therfore now that thou hearest it, take better hede to thy selff.
