YLT - Job - 11

11:1  And Zophar the Naamathite answereth and saith: --

11:2  Is a multitude of words not answered? And is a man of lips justified?

11:3  Thy devices make men keep silent, Thou scornest, and none is causing blushing!

11:4  And thou sayest, `Pure is my discourse, And clean I have been in Thine eyes.'

11:5  And yet, O that God had spoken! And doth open His lips with thee.

11:6  And declare to thee secrets of wisdom, For counsel hath foldings. And know thou that God forgetteth for thee, Some of thine iniquity.

11:7  By searching dost thou find out God? Unto perfection find out the Mighty One?

11:8  Heights of the heavens! --what dost thou? Deeper than Sheol! --what knowest thou?

11:9  Longer than earth is its measure, And broader than the sea.

11:10  If He pass on, and shut up, and assemble, Who then dost reverse it?

11:11  For he hath known men of vanity, And He seeth iniquity, And one doth not consider it !

11:12  And empty man is bold, And the colt of a wild ass man is born.

11:13  If thou--thou hast prepared thy heart, And hast spread out unto Him thy hands,

11:14  If iniquity is in thy hand, put it far off, And let not perverseness dwell in thy tents.

11:15  For then thou liftest up thy face from blemish, And thou hast been firm, and fearest not.

11:16  For thou dost forget misery, As waters passed away thou rememberest.

11:17  And above the noon doth age rise, Thou fliest--as the morning thou art.

11:18  And thou hast trusted because their is hope, And searched--in confidence thou liest down,

11:19  And thou hast rested, And none is causing trembling, And many have entreated thy face;

11:20  And the eyes of the wicked are consumed, And refuge hath perished from them, And their hope is a breathing out of soul!
