Job  


11 : 1 Then Zophar the Naamathite answered,
11 : 2 Shall a multitude of words go unanswered, And a talkative man be acquitted?
11 : 3 Shall your boasts silence men? And shall you scoff and none rebuke?
11 : 4 For you have said, `My teaching is pure, And I am innocent in your eyes.`
11 : 5 But would that God might speak, And open His lips against you,
11 : 6 And show you the secrets of wisdom! For sound wisdom has two sides Know then that God forgets a part of your iniquity.
11 : 7 Can you discover the depths of God? Can you discover the limits of the Almighty?
11 : 8 They are high as the heavens, what can you do? Deeper than Sheol, what can you know?
11 : 9 Its measure is longer than the earth And broader than the sea.
11 : 10 If He passes by or shuts up, Or calls an assembly, who can restrain Him?
11 : 11 For He knows false men, And He sees iniquity without investigating.
11 : 12 An idiot will become intelligent When the foal of a wild donkey is born a man.
11 : 13 If you would direct your heart right And spread out your hand to Him,
11 : 14 If iniquity is in your hand, put it far away, And do not let wickedness dwell in your tents;
11 : 15 Then, indeed, you could lift up your face without moral defect, And you would be steadfast and not fear.
11 : 16 For you would forget your trouble, As waters that have passed by, you would remember it.
11 : 17 Your life would be brighter than noonday; Darkness would be like the morning.
11 : 18 Then you would trust, because there is hope; And you would look around and rest securely.
11 : 19 You would lie down and none would disturb you, And many would entreat your favor.
11 : 20 But the eyes of the wicked will fail, And there will be no escape for them; And their hope is to breathe their last.
