Job 11

1 Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and said,
Compare verse
2 Should not the multitude of words be answered? and should a man full of talk be justified?
Compare verse
3 Should your lies make men hold their peace? and when you mock, shall no man make you ashamed?
Compare verse
4 For you have said, My doctrine is pure, and I am clean in your eyes.
Compare verse
5 But oh that God would speak, and open his lips against you;
Compare verse
6 And that he would show you the secrets of wisdom, that they are double to that which is! Know therefore that God exacts of you less than your iniquity deserves.
Compare verse
7 Can you by searching find out God? can you find out the Almighty to perfection?
Compare verse
8 It is as high as heaven; what can you do? deeper than hell; what can you know?
Compare verse
9 The measure thereof is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.
Compare verse
10 If he cut off, and shut up, or gather together, then who can hinder him?
Compare verse
11 For he knows vain men: he sees wickedness also; will he not then consider it?
Compare verse
12 For vain men would be wise, though man be born like a wild ass's colt.
Compare verse
13 If you prepare your heart, and stretch out your hands toward him;
Compare verse
14 If iniquity be in your hand, put it far away, and let not wickedness dwell in your tabernacles.
Compare verse
15 For then shall you lift up your face without spot; yes, you shall be steadfast, and shall not fear:
Compare verse
16 Because you shall forget your misery, and remember it as waters that pass away:
Compare verse
17 And your age shall be clearer than the noonday: you shall shine forth, you shall be as the morning.
Compare verse
18 And you shall be secure, because there is hope; yes, you shall dig about you, and you shall take your rest in safety.
Compare verse
19 Also you shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid; yes, many shall make suit to you.
Compare verse
20 But the eyes of the wicked shall fail, and they shall not escape, and their hope shall be as the giving up of the ghost.
