Job 4:5

Suffering

3 Surely you have instructed many, and have strengthened their feeble hands.

4 Your words have steadied those who stumbled; you have braced the knees that were buckling.

But now trouble has come upon you, and you are weary. It strikes you, and you are dismayed.

6 Is your reverence not your confidence, and the uprightness of your ways your hope?

7 Consider now, I plead: Who, being innocent, has ever perished? Or where have the upright been destroyed?
