14 De dia eles se encontram com as trevas, e ao meio-dia andam apalpando como de noite.
15 Porém livra ao necessitado da espada de suas bocas, e da mão do violento.
16 Pois ele é esperança para o necessitado, e a injustiça tapa sua boca.
17 Eis que bem-aventurado é o homem a quem Deus corrige; portanto não rejeites o castigo do Todo-Poderoso.
18 Pois ele faz a chaga, mas também põe o curativo; ele fere, mas suas mãos curam.
