14 They meet with darkness in the daytime,And grope at noontime as in the night.
15 But He saves the needy from the sword,From the mouth of the mighty,And from their hand.
16 So the poor have 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 bruises, but He binds up;He wounds, but His hands make whole.
19 He shall deliver you in six troubles,Yes, in seven no evil shall touch you.
20 In famine He shall redeem you from death,And in war from the power of the sword.
