Chapter 11

1


 

  Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and said,  

 

 

-

2


 

  Should not the multitude of words be answered? and should a man full of talk be justified?  

 

 

-

3


 

  Should thy falsehoods make men hold their peace? and when thou mockest, shall no man make thee ashamed?  

 

 

-

4


 

  For thou hast said, My doctrine is pure, and I am clean in thy eyes.  

 

 

-

5


 

  But Oh that God would speak, and open his lips against thee;  

 

 

-

6


 

  And that he would show thee the secrets of wisdom, that they are double to that which is! Know therefore that God exacteth of thee less than thy iniquity deserveth.  

 

 

-

7


 

  Canst thou by searching find out God? canst thou find out the Almighty to perfection?  

 

 

-

8


 

  It is as high as heaven; what canst thou do? deeper than hell; what canst thou know?  

 

 

-

9


 

  The measure of it is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.  

 

 

-

10


 

  If he shall cut off, and shut up, or gather together, then who can hinder him?  

 

 

-

11


 

  For he knoweth vain men: he seeth wickedness also; will he not then consider it?  

 

 

-

12


 

  For vain man would be wise, though man is born like a wild ass's colt.  

 

 

-

13


 

  If thou preparest thy heart, and stretchest out thy hands towards him;  

 

 

-

14


 

  If iniquity is in thy hand, put it far away, and let not wickedness dwell in thy tabernacles.  

 

 

-

15


 

  For then shalt thou lift up thy face without spot; yes, thou shalt be steadfast, and shalt not fear:  

 

 

-

16


 

  Because thou shalt forget thy misery, and remember it as waters that pass away:  

 

 

-

17


 

  And thy age shall be clearer than the noon-day: thou shalt shine forth, thou shalt be as the morning.  

 

 

-

18


 

  And thou shalt be secure, because there is hope; yes, thou shalt dig about thee, and thou shalt take thy rest in safety.  

 

 

-

19


 

  Also thou shalt lie down, and none shall make thee afraid; yes, many shall make suit to thee.  

 

 

-

20


 

  But the eyes of the wicked shall fail, and they shall not escape, and their hope shall be as the expiration of the breath.
