1<\/sup>Therefore call, if there are any who will respond to you, and turn to one or another of the saints.<\/span> <\/p>\n 2<\/sup>Truly, anger condemns the foolish to death, and envy kills the petty.<\/span> <\/p>\n 3<\/sup>I have seen a fool with a strong root, and I have cursed his excellence without hesitation.<\/span> <\/p>\n 4<\/sup>His sons will be far from prosperity and will be crushed at the gate, and there will be none who can rescue them.<\/span> <\/p>\n 5<\/sup>Their harvest, the starving will eat. The armed man will rob him, and the thirsty will drink his resources.<\/span> <\/p>\n 6<\/sup>Nothing on earth occurs without a reason, and sorrow does not rise from the earth.<\/span> <\/p>\n 7<\/sup>Man is born to labor, and the bird to fly.<\/span> <\/p>\n 8<\/sup>Therefore, because of this, I will beg the Lord, and place my eloquence before God.<\/span> <\/p>\n 9<\/sup>He does great and unfathomable and miraculous things without number.<\/span> <\/p>\n 10<\/sup>He gives rain over the face of the earth and irrigates all things with the waters.<\/span> <\/p>\n 11<\/sup>He places the humble on high and encourages the grieving towards health.<\/span> <\/p>\n 12<\/sup>He dispels the thoughts of the spiteful, lest their hands be able to complete what they had begun.<\/span> <\/p>\n 13<\/sup>He catches the wise in their cleverness and dissipates the counsel of the perverse.<\/span> <\/p>\n 14<\/sup>They will encounter darkness in the daytime, and they will grope at midday just as in the night.<\/span> <\/p>\n 15<\/sup>Thereafter, he will act to save the needy from the sword of their mouth, and the poor from the hand of the violent.<\/span> <\/p>\n 16<\/sup>And there will be hope for those in need, for iniquity will diminish its speech.<\/span> <\/p>\n 17<\/sup>Blessed is the man whom God corrects; therefore, do not reject the chastisement of the Lord.<\/span> <\/p>\n 18<\/sup>For he wounds and he cures; he strikes and his hands will heal.<\/span> <\/p>\n 19<\/sup>He will deliver you into six tribulations, and in the seventh, evil will not touch you.<\/span> <\/p>\n 20<\/sup>During famine, he will rescue you from death, and during war, from the hand of the sword.<\/span> <\/p>\n 21<\/sup>You will be hidden from the scourge of the tongue, and you will not fear calamity when it arrives.<\/span> <\/p>\n 22<\/sup>In desolation and in famine, you will laugh, and you will not dread the beasts of the earth.<\/span> <\/p>\n 23<\/sup>For you are in harmony with the stones of the land, and the beasts of the earth will make peace with you.<\/span> <\/p>\n 24<\/sup>And you will know that your home has peace, and, concerning your appearance, you will not sin.<\/span> <\/p>\n 25<\/sup>Likewise, you will know that your offspring will be manifold and your progeny will be like the grass of the earth.<\/span> <\/p>\n 26<\/sup>You will enter the grave with abundance, just as a crop of wheat is gathered in its time.<\/span> <\/p>\n 27<\/sup>Behold, this is just as we have found it, which you have heard; walk it through your mind.<\/span> <\/p>\n
