Job 5:12-16

View Full Chapter

12He thwarts the plans of the crafty, so that their hands achieve no success.

13He catches the wise in their craftiness, and the schemes of the wily are swept away.

14Darkness comes upon them in the daytime; at noon they grope as in the night.

15He saves the needy from the sword in their mouth; he saves them from the clutches of the powerful.

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