A Biblical Quote

Happy is the person whom God corrects!

Do not resent it when he rebukes you.

God bandages the wounds he makes; his hand hurts you and his hand heals.

Time after time he will save you from harm;

When famine comes, he will keep you alive, and in war protect you from death.

God will rescue you from slander;

He will save you when destruction comes.

You will laugh at violence and hunger and not be afraid of wild animals.

The fields you plough will be free of rocks;

Wild animals will never attack you.

Then you will live at peace in your tent; when you look at your sheep, you will find them safe.

You will have as many children as there are blades of grass in a pasture.

Like wheat that ripens till harvest time, you will live to a ripe old age.

It is true, so now accept it.

Job 5:17-27
