LITV - Job - 11

11:1  And Zophar the Naamathite answered and said:

11:2  Should not a flood of words be answered? And should a man of lips be justified?

11:3  Should your lies make men silent? And will you mock, and no one make you ashamed?

11:4  For you have said, My doctrine is pure; and, I am clean in Your eyes.

11:5  But who will grant that God would speak and open His lips against you,

11:6  and would tell you the secrets of wisdom, that counsel is double? Know then that God forgets some of your iniquity for you.

11:7  Can you find out God by searching? Or can you find out the end of the Almighty?

11:8  Heights of the heavens! What can you do? It is deeper than Sheol; what can you know?

11:9  Its measure is longer than the earth, broader than the sea.

11:10  If He passes through and shuts up, or gathers together, then who can turn Him back?

11:11  For He knows the vanity of men; and He sees deceit, and will He not consider?

11:12  For foolish man takes heart, and man is born a wild ass's colt.

11:13  If you prepare your heart, and stretch out your hands toward Him;

11:14  if iniquity is in your hand, put it far away and do not let wickedness dwell in your tents;

11:15  surely then you shall lift up your face without blemish; and you will be steadfast, and you will not fear;

11:16  for you shall forget your misery, and shall remember it as waters that have passed;

11:17  and your lifetime shall rise more than the noonday; you shall fly; you shall be as the morning.

11:18  And you shall trust, because there is hope. Yea, you shall look about and you shall lie down in safety.

11:19  You shall lie down, and no one will be terrifying; yea, many shall seek your favor.

11:20  But the eyes of the wicked shall be consumed, and escape shall perish from them; and their hope shall be like the breathing out of the soul.
