Job 11 — GMV

11 Then Zophar the Minaean answered and said, ² He that speaks much, should also hear on the other side: ³ Be not a speaker of many words; ⁴ For say not, I am pure in my works, ⁵ But oh that the Lord would speak to thee, ⁶ Then shall he declare to thee the power of wisdom; ⁷ Wilt thou find out the traces of the Lord? ⁸ Heaven is high; and what wilt thou do? ⁹ Or longer than the measure of the earth, ¹⁰ And if he should overthrow all things, who will say to him, What hast thou done? ¹¹ For he knows the works of transgressors; ¹² But man vainly buoys himself up with words; ¹³ For if thou hast made thy heart pure, ¹⁴ If there is any iniquity in thy hands, ¹⁵ For thus shall thy countenance shine again, as pure water; ¹⁶ And thou shalt forget trouble, ¹⁷ And thy prayer shall be as the morning star, ¹⁸ And thou shalt be confident, because thou hast hope; ¹⁹ For thou shalt be at ease, and there shall be no one to fight against thee; ²⁰ But safety shall fail them;
