I would commit my cause to God, 9 who does great things that can't be fathomed, marvelous things without number; 10 who gives rain on the earth, and sends waters on the fields; 11 so that he sets up on high those who are low, those who mourn are exalted to safety. 12 He frustrates the devices of the crafty, So that their hands can't perform their enterprise. 13 He takes the wise in their own craftiness; the counsel of the cunning is carried headlong. 14 They meet with darkness in the day time, and grope at noonday as in the night. 15 But he saves from the sword of their mouth, even the needy from the hand of the mighty. 16 So the poor has hope, and injustice shuts her mouth. 17 "Behold, happy is the man whom God corrects. Therefore do not despise the chastening of the Almighty. 18 For he wounds, and binds up. He injures, and his hands make whole. 19 He will deliver you in six troubles; yes, in seven no evil shall touch you. 20 In famine he will redeem you from death; in war, from the power of the sword. 21 You shall be hidden from the scourge of the tongue, neither shall you be afraid of destruction when it comes. 22 At destruction and famine you shall laugh, neither shall you be afraid of the animals of the earth. 23 For you shall be allied with the stones of the field. The animals of the field shall be at peace with you. 24 You shall know that your tent is in peace. You shall visit your fold, and shall miss nothing. 25 You shall know also that your seed shall be great, Your offspring as the grass of the earth. 26 You shall come to your grave in a full age, like a shock of grain comes in its season.

You shall remember it as waters that are passed away. 17 Life shall be clearer than the noonday. Though there is darkness, it shall be as the morning. 18 You shall be secure, because there is hope. Yes, you shall search, and shall take your rest in safety. 19 Also you shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid. Yes, many shall court your favor.
