Job 36:15

Tree of Life Version

He delivers the afflicted by his affliction and opens their ear in oppression.

However, they will become subjects to him so that they may learn the difference between serving Me and serving the kings of the earth.”

Are the comforts of God too small for you, or a gentle word toward you?

Then He opens the ears of men and seals their instruction,

And He opens their ear to instruction, and commands that they turn from evil.

Be careful, do not turn to iniquity; for you have chosen this rather than affliction.

But if they are bound in chains, and held captive by cords of affliction,

But He saves the needy from the sword of their mouth, and from the clutches of the mighty.

Behold, happy is the one whom God corrects, so do not despise the discipline of Shaddai.

But He lifts the needy high above affliction, and makes their families like a flock.

For he rescues the needy crying for help, also the poor and the one with no helper.
