Job 11
Reading Job chapter 11 in the Young's Literal Translation, public-domain text from 1898.
Verses 1–10
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?
