Job 11:1-6

11Job's friend Zophar, who came from Naamah, decided to speak. He said this to Job:

2‘Someone must answer all these words that you have spoken. You have talked a lot, but that does not mean that you are right.

3Your proud words will not cause other people to say nothing. We must make you ashamed when you laugh at us.

4You have said, “The things that I teach are true. God knows that I am a good man.”

5So God himself should answer you. He should tell you what he thinks.

6He would show you the secret of wisdom. True wisdom is not easy to understand. But you must understand this: God is punishing you less than you deserve.
