Job 11

From Textus Receptus

Revision as of 22:14, 6 July 2010

• 1 Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and said,

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

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

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

• 1 But oh that God would speak, and open his lips against thee;

• 1 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.

• 1 Canst thou by searching find out God? canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection?

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

• 1 The measure thereof is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.

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

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

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

• 1 If thou prepare thine heart, and stretch out thine hands toward him;

• 1 If iniquity be in thine hand, put it far away, and let not wickedness dwell in thy tabernacles.

• 15 For then shalt thou lift up thy face without spot; yea, thou shalt be stedfast, and shalt not fear:

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

• 1 And thine age shall be clearer than the noonday: thou shalt shine forth, thou shalt be as the morning.

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

• 1 Also thou shalt lie down, and none shall make thee afraid; yea, many shall make suit unto thee.

• 1 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.
