Job 11
updv@Job:11:1 @ Then Zophar the Naamathite answered and said,
updv@Job:11:2 @ Shouldn't the multitude of words be answered? And should a man full of talk be justified?
updv@Job:11:3 @ Should your boastings make men hold their peace? And when you mock, will no man make you ashamed?
updv@Job:11:4 @ For you say, My doctrine is pure, And I am clean in your eyes.
updv@Job:11:5 @ But oh that God would speak, And open his lips against you,
updv@Job:11:6 @ And that he would show you the secrets of wisdom! For he is manifold in understanding. Know therefore that God exacts of you less than your iniquity deserves.
updv@Job:11:7 @ Can you by searching find out God? Can you find out the Almighty to perfection?
updv@Job:11:8 @ At the height of heaven, what can you do? Deeper than Sheol; what can you know?
updv@Job:11:9 @ The measure of it is longer than the earth, And broader than the sea.
updv@Job:11:10 @ If he passes through, and shuts up, And calls to judgment, then who can hinder him?
updv@Job:11:11 @ For he knows false men: He sees iniquity also, even though he does not consider it.
updv@Job:11:12 @ But a vain man is void of understanding, Yes, man is born [as] a wild donkey's colt.
updv@Job:11:13 @ If you set your heart aright, And stretch out your hands toward him;
updv@Job:11:14 @ If iniquity is in your hand, put it far away, And don't let unrighteousness stay in your tents.
updv@Job:11:15 @ Surely then you will lift up your face without spot; Yes, you will be steadfast, and will not fear:
updv@Job:11:16 @ For you will forget your misery; You will remember it as waters that are passed away,
updv@Job:11:17 @ And [your] lifetime will be clearer than the noonday; Though there is darkness, it will be as the morning.
updv@Job:11:18 @ And you will be secure, because there is hope; Yes, you will search [about you], and will take your rest in safety.
updv@Job:11:19 @ Also you will lie down, and none will make you afraid; Yes, many will make suit to you.
updv@Job:11:20 @ But the eyes of the wicked will fail, And they will have no way to flee; And their hope will be the giving up of the ghost.
