Then he openeth
<01540> (8799)

the ears
<0241>

of men
<0582>_,

and sealeth
<02856> (8799)

their instruction
<04561>_,

{he...: Heb. he revealeth, or, uncovereth}

That he may withdraw
<05493> (8687)

man
<0120>

[from his] purpose
<04639>_,

and hide
<03680> (8762)

pride
<01466>

from man
<01397>_.

{purpose: Heb. work}

He keepeth back
<02820> (8799)

his soul
<05315>

from the pit
<07845>_,

and his life
<02416>

from perishing
<05674> (8800)

by the sword
<07973>_.

{from perishing: Heb. from passing}
