Job 11

[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] [31] [32] [33] [34] [35] [36] [37] [38] [39] [40] [41] [42]

11:1 And Zophar the Naamathite answered and said,

11:2 Should not the multitude of words be answered? and should a man of much talk be justified?

11:3 Should thy fictions make men hold their peace? and shouldest thou mock, and no one make [thee] ashamed?

11:4 For thou sayest, My doctrine is pure, and I am clean in thine eyes.

11:5 But oh that +God would speak, and open his lips against thee;

11:6 And that he would shew thee the secrets of wisdom, how that they are the double of what is realised; and know that +God passeth by [much] of thine iniquity!

11:7 Canst thou by searching find out +God? canst thou find out the Almighty to perfection?

11:8 [It is as] the heights of heaven; what wilt thou do? deeper than Sheol; what canst thou know?

11:9 The measure thereof is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.

11:10 If he pass by, and shut up, and call to judgment, who can hinder him?

11:11 For he knoweth vain men, and seeth wickedness when [man] doth not consider it;

11:12 Yet a senseless man will make bold, though man be born [like] the foal of a wild ass.

11:13 If thou prepare thy heart and stretch out thy hands toward him,

11:14 If thou put far away the iniquity which is in thy hand, and let not wrong dwell in thy tents;

11:15 Surely then shalt thou lift up thy face without spot, and thou shalt be stedfast and shalt not fear:

11:16 For thou shalt forget misery; as waters that are passed away shalt thou remember it;

11:17 And life shall arise brighter than noonday; though thou be enshrouded in darkness, thou shalt be as the morning,

11:18 And thou shalt have confidence, because there shall be hope; and having searched about [thee], thou shalt take rest in safety.

11:19 Yea, thou shalt lie down, and none shall make thee afraid; and many shall seek thy favour.

11:20 But the eyes of the wicked shall fail, and [all] refuge shall vanish from them, and their hope [shall be] the breathing out of life.
