Job 5:7-12 English Standard Version (ESV)

7. but man is born to troubleas the sparks fly upward.

8. “As for me, I would seek God,and to God would I commit my cause,

9. who does great things and unsearchable, marvelous things without number:

10. he gives rain on the earthand sends waters on the fields;

11. he sets on high those who are lowly,and those who mourn are lifted to safety.

12. He frustrates the devices of the crafty,so that their hands achieve no success.
