Zophar
Rebukes Job |
|
|
 |
| Job 11:1 |
|
Then Zophar the Naamathite answered, |
|
|
|
|
| Job 11:2 |
|
"Shall a multitude of words go unanswered, And
a talkative man be acquitted? |
| |
|
|
| Job 11:3 |
|
"Shall your boasts silence men? And shall you
scoff and none rebuke? |
| |
|
|
| Job 11:4 |
|
"For you have said, 'My teaching is pure, And
I am innocent in your eyes.' |
| |
|
|
| Job 11:5 |
|
"But would that God might speak, And open His
lips against you, |
| |
|
|
| Job 11:6 |
|
And show you the secrets of wisdom! For sound
wisdom has two sides. Know then that God forgets a part of your iniquity. |
| |
|
|
| Job 11:7 |
|
"Can you discover the depths of God? Can you
discover the limits of the Almighty? |
|
|
|
| Job 11:8 |
|
"They are high as the heavens, what can you
do? Deeper than Sheol, what can you know? |
|
|
|
| Job 11:9 |
|
"Its measure is longer than the earth And broader
than the sea. |
|
|
|
| Job 11:10 |
|
"If He passes by or shuts up, Or calls an assembly,
who can restrain Him? |
|
|
|
| Job 11:11 |
|
"For He knows false men, And He sees iniquity
without investigating. |
|
|
|
| Job 11:12 |
|
"An idiot will become intelligent When the foal
of a wild donkey is born a man. |
|
|
|
| Job 11:13 |
|
"If you would direct your heart right And spread
out your hand to Him, |
|
|
|
| Job 11:14 |
|
If iniquity is in your hand, put it far away,
And do not let wickedness dwell in your tents; |
|
|
|
| Job 11:15 |
|
"Then, indeed, you could lift up your face without
moral defect, And you would be steadfast and not fear. |
|
|
|
| Job 11:16 |
|
"For you would forget your trouble, As waters
that have passed by, you would remember it. |
|
|
|
| Job 11:17 |
|
"Your life would be brighter than noonday; Darkness
would be like the morning. |
|
|
|
| Job 11:18 |
|
"Then you would trust, because there is hope;
And you would look around and rest securely. |
|
|
|
| Job 11:19 |
|
"You would lie down and none would disturb you,
And many would entreat your favor. |
| |
|
|
| Job 11:20 |
|
"But the eyes of the wicked will fail, And there
will be no escape for them; And their hope is to breathe their last." |
