Job 11 :: Legacy Standard Bible (LSB)

“Shall a multitude ^H7230 of words ^H1697 go ^H6030 unanswered ^H3808 H6030,

And a man ^H376 of lips ^H8193 be in the right ^H6663?

“Shall your boasts ^H907 silence ^H2790 men ^H4962?

And shall you mock ^H3932 and none ^H369 rebuke ^H3637?

“You have said ^H559, ‘My learning ^H3948 is pure ^H2134,

And I am ^H1961 innocent ^H1249 in your eyes ^H5869.’

“But would ^H4310 H5414 that God ^H433 might speak ^H1696,

And open ^H6605 His lips ^H8193 against ^H5973 you,

And tell ^H5046 you the secrets ^H8587 of wisdom ^H2451!

For sound ^H8454 wisdom ^H8454 [fn]has two ^H3718 sides ^H3718.

Know ^H3045 then that God ^H433 [fn]forgets ^H5382 a part of your iniquity ^H5771.

“Can you find ^H4672 the depths ^H2714 of God ^H433?

Can you find ^H4672 the limits ^H8503 of the Almighty ^H7706?

“They are high ^H1363 as [fn]the heavens ^H8064, what ^H4100 can you do ^H6466?

Deeper ^H6013 than ^H4480 Sheol ^H7585, what ^H4100 can you know ^H3045?

“Its measure ^H4055 is longer ^H752 than ^H4480 the earth ^H776

And broader ^H7342 than ^H4480 the sea ^H3220.

“If ^H518 He sweeps ^H2498 by ^H2498 or shuts ^H5462 up ^H5462,

Or calls ^H6950 an ^H6950 assembly ^H6950, who ^H4310 can turn ^H7725 Him around ^H7725?

“For He knows ^H3045 worthless ^H7723 men ^H4962,

And He sees ^H7200 wickedness ^H205, [fn]so will He not ^H3808 carefully ^H995 consider ^H995 it?

“[fn]Yet an empty ^H5014 headed man ^H376 will obtain a heart ^H3823 of wisdom,

And the [fn]foal ^H5895 of a wild ^H6501 donkey ^H6501 is born ^H3205 a man ^H120.

“If ^H518 you would set ^H3559 your heart ^H3820 right ^H3559

And spread ^H6566 out ^H6566 your hand ^H3709 to Him,

If ^H518 wickedness ^H205 is in your hand ^H3027, put ^H7368 it far ^H7368 away ^H7368,

And do not let unrighteousness ^H5766 dwell ^H7931 in your tents ^H168;

Then ^H227, indeed ^H3588, you could lift ^H5375 up ^H5375 your face ^H6440 without ^H4480 moral defect ^H3971,

And you would be steadfast ^H3332 and not fear ^H3372.

“For you would forget ^H7911 your trouble ^H5999,

As waters ^H4325 that pass ^H5674 by ^H5674, so you would remember ^H2142 it.

“And your lifetime ^H2465 would arise ^H6965 brighter than ^H4480 noonday ^H6672;

Darkness ^H5774 would be like the morning ^H1242.

“Then you would trust ^H982, because ^H3588 there ^H3426 is ^H3426 hope ^H8615;

And you would search ^H2658 around ^H2658 and rest ^H7901 securely ^H983.

“You would lie ^H7257 down ^H7257 and none ^H369 would make ^H2729 you tremble ^H2729,

And many ^H7227 would entreat ^H2470 your [fn]favor ^H6440.

“But the eyes ^H5869 of the wicked ^H7563 will come ^H3615 to ^H3615 an ^H3615 end ^H3615,

And escape ^H4498 will perish ^H6 from them;

And their hope ^H8615 is the expiring ^H4646 of their soul ^H5315.”
