Job 11

American Standard Version

1Then answered ZopharH6691 the NaamathiteH5284, and saidH559,

2Should not the multitudeH7230 of wordsH1697 be answeredH6030?And should a manH376 full of talk be justifiedH6663?3Should thy boastings make men hold their peace?And when thou mockest, shall no man make thee ashamedH3637?4For thou sayest, My doctrine isH1961 pureH2134,And I amH1961 cleanH1249 in thine eyesH5869.5But oh that GodH433 would speakH1696,And openH6605 his lipsH8193 against thee,6And that he would show thee the secretsH8587 of wisdomH2451!For he is manifold in understanding.KnowH3045 therefore that GodH433 exacteth of thee less than thine iniquityH5771 deserveth.7Canst thou by searchingH2714 findH4672 out GodH433?Canst thou findH4672 out the AlmightyH7706 unto perfection?8It is high as heavenH8064; what canst thou do?Deeper than SheolH7585; what canst thou knowH3045?9The measure thereof is longer than the earthH776,And broaderH7342 than the seaH3220.10If he pass through, and shutH5462 up,And call unto judgment, then who can hinder him?11For he knoweth false men:He seeth iniquity also, even though he considerH7200 it not.12But vain manH376 is void of understanding,Yea, manH376 is bornH3205 as a wildH6501 ass’s colt.13If thou set thy heartH3820 aright,And stretch out thy handsH3709 toward him;14If iniquity be in thy handH3027, putH7368 it farH7368 awayH7368,And let not unrighteousnessH5766 dwellH7931 in thy tentsH168.15Surely thenH227 shalt thou liftH5375 up thy faceH6440 without spot;Yea, thou shalt beH1961 stedfast, and shalt not fearH3372:16For thou shalt forgetH7911 thy misery;Thou shalt rememberH2142 it as watersH4325 that are passedH5674 awayH5674,17Andthylife shall beH1961 clearer than the noonday;Though there beH1961 darkness, it shall beH1961 as the morningH1242.18And thou shalt be secureH982, because there is hopeH8615;Yea, thou shalt searchabout thee, and shalt take thy restH7901 in safety.19Also thou shalt lieH7257 down, and none shall make thee afraid;Yea, manyH7227 shall make suit unto thee.20But the eyesH5869 of the wickedH7563 shall failH3615,And they shall have no way to flee;And their hopeH8615 shall be the giving up of the ghost.
