Job 11
Revised Webster's Bible
1Then answeredH6030 ZopharH6691 the NaamathiteH5284, and saidH559, 2Should not the multitudeH7230 of wordsH1697 be answeredH6030? and should a manH376 full of talkH8193 be justifiedH6663?1 3Should thy liesH907 makeH2790 menH4962 hold their peaceH2790? and when thou mockestH3932, shall no man make thee ashamedH3637?2 4For thou hast saidH559, My doctrineH3948 is pureH2134, and I am cleanH1249 in thy eyesH5869. 5ButH199 O thatH5414 GodH433 would speakH1696, and openH6605 his lipsH8193 against thee; 6And that he would showH5046 thee the secretsH8587 of wisdomH2451, that they are doubleH3718 to that which isH8454! KnowH3045 therefore that GodH433 exactethH5382 of thee less than thy iniquityH5771 deserveth .
7Canst thou by searchingH2714 find outH4672 GodH433? canst thou findH4672 out the AlmightyH7706 to perfectionH8503? 8It is as highH1363 as heavenH8064; what canst thou doH6466? deeperH6013 than hellH7585; what canst thou knowH3045?3 9The measureH4055 of it is longerH752 than the earthH776, and broaderH7342 than the seaH3220. 10If he shall cut offH2498, and shut upH5462, or gather togetherH6950, then who can hinderH7725 him?45 11For he knowethH3045 vainH7723 menH4962: he seethH7200 wickednessH205 also; will he not then considerH995 it ? 12For vainH5014 manH376 would be wiseH3823, though manH120 is bornH3205 like a wild donkey’sH6501 coltH5895.6
13If thou preparestH3559 thy heartH3820, and stretchestH6566 out thy handsH3709 toward him; 14If iniquityH205 is in thy handH3027, put it far awayH7368, and let not wickednessH5766 dwellH7931 in thy tentsH168. 15For then shalt thou lift upH5375 thy faceH6440 without spotH3971; yea, thou shalt be steadfastH3332, and shalt not fearH3372: 16Because thou shalt forgetH7911 thy miseryH5999, and rememberH2142 it as watersH4325 that pass awayH5674: 17And thy ageH2465 shall be clearerH6965 than the noondayH6672; thou shalt shine forthH5774, thou shalt be as the morningH1242.7 18And thou shalt be secureH982, because there isH3426 hopeH8615; yea, thou shalt digH2658 about thee, and thou shalt take thy restH7901 in safetyH983. 19Also thou shalt lie downH7257, and none shall make thee afraidH2729; yea, manyH7227 shall make suitH2470 to theeH6440.8 20But the eyesH5869 of the wickedH7563 shall failH3615, and they shall not escapeH6H4498, and their hopeH8615 shall be as the giving upH4646 of the ghostH5315.910
