Job Chapter 11 (KJV)
undefined
Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and said,
undefined
Should not the multitude of words be answered? and should a man full of talk be justified?
undefined
Should thy lies make men hold their peace? and when thou mockest, shall no man make thee ashamed?
undefined
For thou hast said, My doctrine is pure, and I am clean in thine eyes.
undefined
But oh that God would speak, and open his lips against thee;
undefined
And that he would shew thee the secrets of wisdom, that they are double to that which is! Know therefore that God exacteth of thee less than thine iniquity deserveth.
undefined
Canst thou by searching find out God? canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection?
undefined
It is as high as heaven; what canst thou do? deeper than hell; what canst thou know?
undefined
The measure thereof is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.
undefined
If he cut off, and shut up, or gather together, then who can hinder him?
undefined
For he knoweth vain men: he seeth wickedness also; will he not then consider it?
undefined
For vain man would be wise, though man be born like a wild ass’s colt.
undefined
If thou prepare thine heart, and stretch out thine hands toward him;
undefined
If iniquity be in thine hand, put it far away, and let not wickedness dwell in thy tabernacles.
undefined
For then shalt thou lift up thy face without spot; yea, thou shalt be stedfast, and shalt not fear:
undefined
Because thou shalt forget thy misery, and remember it as waters that pass away:
undefined
And thine age shall be clearer than the noonday; thou shalt shine forth, thou shalt be as the morning.
undefined
And thou shalt be secure, because there is hope; yea, thou shalt dig about thee, and thou shalt take thy rest in safety.
undefined
Also thou shalt lie down, and none shall make thee afraid; yea, many shall make suit unto thee.
undefined
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.
