Chapter 11

1


 

  And Zophar the Naamathite answereth and saith: --  

 

 

--

2


 

  Is a multitude of words not answered? And is a man of lips justified?  

 

 

--

3


 

  Thy devices make men keep silent, Thou scornest, and none is causing blushing!  

 

 

--

4


 

  And thou sayest, 'Pure [is] my discourse, And clean I have been in Thine eyes.'  

 

 

--

5


 

  And yet, O that God had spoken! And doth open His lips with thee.  

 

 

--

6


 

  And declare to thee secrets of wisdom, For counsel hath foldings. And know thou that God forgetteth for thee, [Some] of thine iniquity.  

 

 

--

7


 

  By searching dost thou find out God? Unto perfection find out the Mighty One?  

 

 

--

8


 

  Heights of the heavens! -- what dost thou? Deeper than Sheol! -- what knowest thou?  

 

 

--

9


 

  Longer than earth [is] its measure, And broader than the sea.  

 

 

--

10


 

  If He pass on, and shut up, and assemble, Who then dost reverse it?  

 

 

--

11


 

  For he hath known men of vanity, And He seeth iniquity, And one doth not consider [it]!  

 

 

--

12


 

  And empty man is bold, And the colt of a wild ass man is born.  

 

 

--

13


 

  If thou -- thou hast prepared thy heart, And hast spread out unto Him thy hands,  

 

 

--

14


 

  If iniquity [is] in thy hand, put it far off, And let not perverseness dwell in thy tents.  

 

 

--

15


 

  For then thou liftest up thy face from blemish, And thou hast been firm, and fearest not.  

 

 

--

16


 

  For thou dost forget misery, As waters passed away thou rememberest.  

 

 

--

17


 

  And above the noon doth age rise, Thou fliest -- as the morning thou art.  

 

 

--

18


 

  And thou hast trusted because their is hope, And searched -- in confidence thou liest down,  

 

 

--

19


 

  And thou hast rested, And none is causing trembling, And many have entreated thy face;  

 

 

--

20


 

  And the eyes of the wicked are consumed, And refuge hath perished from them, And their hope [is] a breathing out of soul!
