- 1Call now, if there be any that will answer thee; and to which of the saints wilt thou turn?קְֽרָא נָ֭א הֲיֵ֣שׁ עוֹנֶ֑ךָּ וְאֶל מִ֖י מִקְּדֹשִׁ֣ים תִּפְנֶֽה
- 2For wrath killeth the foolish man, and envy slayeth the silly one.כִּֽי לֶֽ֭אֱוִיל יַהֲרָג כָּ֑עַשׂ וּ֝פֹתֶ֗ה תָּמִ֥ית קִנְאָֽה
- 3I have seen the foolish taking root: but suddenly I cursed his habitation.אֲֽנִי רָ֭אִיתִי אֱוִ֣יל מַשְׁרִ֑ישׁ וָאֶקּ֖וֹב נָוֵ֣הוּ פִתְאֹֽם
- 4His children are far from safety, and they are crushed in the gate, neither is there any to deliver them.יִרְחֲק֣וּ בָנָ֣יו מִיֶּ֑שַׁע וְיִֽדַּכְּא֥וּ בַ֝שַּׁ֗עַר וְאֵ֣ין מַצִּֽיל
- 5Whose harvest the hungry eateth up, and taketh it even out of the thorns, and the robber swalloweth up their substance.אֲשֶׁ֤ר קְצִיר֨וֹ רָ֘עֵ֤ב יֹאכֵ֗ל וְאֶֽל מִצִּנִּ֥ים יִקָּחֵ֑הוּ וְשָׁאַ֖ף צַמִּ֣ים חֵילָֽם
- 6Although affliction cometh not forth of the dust, neither doth trouble spring out of the ground;כִּ֤י לֹא יֵצֵ֣א מֵעָפָ֣ר אָ֑וֶן וּ֝מֵאֲדָמָ֗ה לֹא יִצְמַ֥ח עָמָֽל
- 7Yet man is born unto trouble, as the sparks fly upward.כִּֽי אָ֭דָם לְעָמָ֣ל יוּלָּ֑ד וּבְנֵי רֶ֝֗שֶׁף יַגְבִּ֥יהוּ עֽוּף
- 8I would seek unto God, and unto God would I commit my cause:אוּלָ֗ם אֲ֭נִי אֶדְרֹ֣שׁ אֶל אֵ֑ל וְאֶל אֱ֝לֹהִ֗ים אָשִׂ֥ים דִּבְרָתִֽי
- 9Which doeth great things and unsearchable; marvellous things without number:עֹשֶׂ֣ה גְ֭דֹלוֹת וְאֵ֣ין חֵ֑קֶר נִ֝פְלָא֗וֹת עַד אֵ֥ין מִסְפָּֽר
- 10Who giveth rain upon the earth, and sendeth waters upon the fields:הַנֹּתֵ֣ן מָ֭טָר עַל פְּנֵי אָ֑רֶץ וְשֹׁ֥לֵֽחַ מַ֝יִם עַל פְּנֵ֥י חוּצֽוֹת
- 11To set up on high those that be low; that those which mourn may be exalted to safety.לָשׂ֣וּם שְׁפָלִ֣ים לְמָר֑וֹם וְ֝קֹדְרִ֗ים שָׂ֣גְבוּ יֶֽשַׁע
- 12He disappointeth the devices of the crafty, so that their hands cannot perform their enterprise.מֵ֭פֵר מַחְשְׁב֣וֹת עֲרוּמִ֑ים וְֽלֹא תַעֲשֶׂ֥ינָה יְ֝דֵיהֶ֗ם תּוּשִׁיָּֽה
- 13He taketh the wise in their own craftiness: and the counsel of the froward is carried headlong.לֹכֵ֣ד חֲכָמִ֣ים בְּעָרְמָ֑ם וַעֲצַ֖ת נִפְתָּלִ֣ים נִמְהָֽרָה
- 14They meet with darkness in the daytime, and grope in the noonday as in the night.יוֹמָ֥ם יְפַגְּשׁוּ חֹ֑שֶׁךְ וְ֝כַלַּ֗יְלָה יְֽמַשְׁשׁ֥וּ בַֽצָּהֳרָֽיִם
- 15But he saveth the poor from the sword, from their mouth, and from the hand of the mighty.וַיֹּ֣שַׁע מֵ֭חֶרֶב מִפִּיהֶ֑ם וּמִיַּ֖ד חָזָ֣ק אֶבְיֽוֹן
- 16So the poor hath hope, and iniquity stoppeth her mouth.וַתְּהִ֣י לַדַּ֣ל תִּקְוָ֑ה וְ֝עֹלָ֗תָה קָ֣פְצָה פִּֽיהָ
- 17Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth: therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty:הִנֵּ֤ה אַשְׁרֵ֣י אֱ֭נוֹשׁ יוֹכִחֶ֣נּֽוּ אֱל֑וֹהַּ וּמוּסַ֥ר שַׁ֝דַּ֗י אַל תִּמְאָֽס
- 18For he maketh sore, and bindeth up: he woundeth, and his hands make whole.כִּ֤י ה֣וּא יַכְאִ֣יב וְיֶחְבָּ֑שׁ יִ֝מְחַ֗ץ וידו וְיָדָ֥יו תִּרְפֶּֽינָה
- 19He shall deliver thee in six troubles: yea, in seven there shall no evil touch thee.בְּשֵׁ֣שׁ צָ֭רוֹת יַצִּילֶ֑ךָּ וּבְשֶׁ֓בַע לֹא יִגַּ֖ע רָֽע
- 20In famine he shall redeem thee from death: and in war from the power of the sword.בְּ֭רָעָב פָּֽדְךָ֣ מִמָּ֑וֶת וּ֝בְמִלְחָמָ֗ה מִ֣ידֵי חָֽרֶב
- 21Thou shalt be hid from the scourge of the tongue: neither shalt thou be afraid of destruction when it cometh.בְּשׁ֣וֹט לָ֭שׁוֹן תֵּחָבֵ֑א וְֽלֹא תִירָ֥א מִ֝שֹּׁ֗ד כִּ֣י יָבֽוֹא
- 22At destruction and famine thou shalt laugh: neither shalt thou be afraid of the beasts of the earth.לְשֹׁ֣ד וּלְכָפָ֣ן תִּשְׂחָ֑ק וּֽמֵחַיַּ֥ת הָ֝אָ֗רֶץ אַל תִּירָֽא
- 23For thou shalt be in league with the stones of the field: and the beasts of the field shall be at peace with thee.כִּ֤י עִם אַבְנֵ֣י הַשָּׂדֶ֣ה בְרִיתֶ֑ךָ וְחַיַּ֥ת הַ֝שָּׂדֶ֗ה הָשְׁלְמָה
- 24And thou shalt know that thy tabernacle shall be in peace; and thou shalt visit thy habitation, and shalt not sin.וְֽ֭יָדַעְתָּ כִּי שָׁל֣וֹם אָהֳלֶ֑ךָ וּֽפָקַדְתָּ֥ נָ֝וְךָ וְלֹ֣א תֶחֱטָֽא
- 25Thou shalt know also that thy seed shall be great, and thine offspring as the grass of the earth.וְֽ֭יָדַעְתָּ כִּי רַ֣ב זַרְעֶ֑ךָ וְ֝צֶאֱצָאֶ֗יךָ כְּעֵ֣שֶׂב הָאָֽרֶץ
- 26Thou shalt come to thy grave in a full age, like as a shock of corn cometh in in his season.תָּב֣וֹא בְכֶ֣לַח אֱלֵי קָ֑בֶר כַּעֲל֖וֹת גָּדִ֣ישׁ בְּעִתּֽוֹ
- 27Lo this, we have searched it, so it is; hear it, and know thou it for thy good.הִנֵּה זֹ֭את חֲקַרְנ֥וּהָ כֶּֽן הִ֑יא שְׁ֝מָעֶ֗נָּה וְאַתָּ֥ה דַֽע

Hebrew verse gematria
YHWSA calculates these totals directly from every consonant in the tagged Hebrew source line using the Carlo Suarès letter-number system; vowel points and cantillation marks do not add values. The totals are not reverse-mapped from English. A matching number is a comparison to investigate, not proof that two passages mean the same thing.
