Job:5:8: I would seek unto God, and unto God would I commit my cause:
Job:5:9: Which doeth great things and unsearchable; marvellous things without number:
Job:5:10: Who giveth rain upon the earth, and sendeth waters upon the fields:
Job:5:11: To set up on high those that be low; that those which mourn may be exalted to safety.

Job:5:21: Thou shalt be hid from the scourge of the tongue: neither shalt thou be afraid of destruction when it cometh.
Job:5:22: At destruction and famine thou shalt laugh: neither shalt thou be afraid of the beasts of the earth.
Job:5:23: For thou shalt be in league with the stones of the field: and the beasts of the field shall be at peace with thee.
