16. So the poor has hope, and injustice shuts her mouth.
17. Behold, happy is the man whom God corrects: therefore despise not the chastening of the Almighty:
18. For he bruises, and binds up: he wounds, and his hands make whole.
19. He shall deliver you in six troubles: yea, in seven there shall no evil touch you.
20. In famine he shall redeem you from death: and in war from the power of the sword.
21. You shall be hid from the scourge of the tongue: neither shall you be afraid of destruction when it comes.
