Job 11
1Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and said,2Should not the multitude of words be answered? and should a man full of talk be justified?3Should thy lies make men hold their peace? and when thou mockest, shall no man make thee ashamed?4For thou hast said, My doctrine <add>is</add> pure, and I am clean in thine eyes.5But oh that God would speak, and open his lips against thee;6And that he would shew thee the secrets of wisdom, that <add>they are</add> double to that which is! Know therefore that God exacteth of thee <add>less</add> than thine iniquity <add>deserveth</add>.7Canst thou by searching find out God? canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection?8<add>It is</add> as high as heaven; what canst thou do? deeper than hell; what canst thou know?9The measure thereof <add>is</add> longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.10If he cut off, and shut up, or gather together, then who can hinder him?11For he knoweth vain men: he seeth wickedness also; will he not then consider <add>it?</add>12For vain man would be wise, though man be born <add>like</add> a wild ass’s colt.13If thou prepare thine heart, and stretch out thine hands toward him;14If iniquity <add>be</add> in thine hand, put it far away, and let not wickedness dwell in thy tabernacles.15For then shalt thou lift up thy face without spot; yea, thou shalt be stedfast, and shalt not fear:16Because thou shalt forget <add>thy</add> misery, <add>and</add> remember <add>it</add> as waters <add>that</add> pass away:17And <add>thine</add> age shall be clearer than the noonday; thou shalt shine forth, thou shalt be as the morning.18And thou shalt be secure, because there is hope; yea, thou shalt dig <add>about thee, and</add> thou shalt take thy rest in safety.19Also thou shalt lie down, and none shall make <add>thee</add> afraid; yea, many shall make suit unto thee.20But the eyes of the wicked shall fail, and they shall not escape, and their hope <add>shall be as</add> the giving up of the ghost.
