Job 11 — GNV
11Verse 1Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and sayde,Verse 2Should not the multitude of wordes be answered? or should a great talker be iustified?Verse 3Should men holde their peace at thy lyes? and when thou mockest others, shall none make thee ashamed?Verse 4For thou hast sayde, My doctrine is pure, and I am cleane in thine eyes.Verse 5But, oh that God would speake and open his lippes against thee!Verse 6That he might shewe thee the secretes of wisedome, howe thou hast deserued double, according to right: know therefore that God hath forgotten thee for thine iniquitie.Verse 7Canst thou by searching finde out God? canst thou finde out ye Almighty to his perfection?Verse 8The heauens are hie, what canst thou doe? it is deeper then the hell, how canst thou know it?Verse 9The measure thereof is longer then the earth, and it is broader then the sea.Verse 10If hee cut off and shut vp, or gather together, who can turne him backe?Verse 11For hee knoweth vaine men, and seeth iniquitie, and him that vnderstandeth nothing.Verse 12Yet vaine man would be wise, though man new borne is like a wilde asse colte.Verse 13If thou prepare thine heart, and stretch out thine hands toward him:Verse 14If iniquitie be in thine hand, put it farre away, and let no wickednesse dwell in thy Tabernacle.Verse 15The truely shalt thou lift vp thy face without spot, and shalt be stable, and shalt not feare.Verse 16But thou shalt forget thy miserie, and remember it as waters that are past.Verse 17Thine age also shall appeare more cleare then the noone day: thou shalt shine and bee as the morning.Verse 18And thou shalt bee bolde, because there is hope: and thou shalt digge pittes, and shalt lye downe safely.Verse 19For when thou takest thy rest, none shall make thee afraide: yea, many shall make sute vnto thee.Verse 20But the eyes of the wicked shall faile, and their refuge shall perish, and their hope shalbe sorow of minde.
