Job - Chapter: 11

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

 

11:1ויען צפר הנעמתי ויאמר׃
11:2הרב דברים לא יענה ואם אישׁ שׂפתים יצדק׃
11:3בדיך מתים יחרישׁו ותלעג ואין מכלם׃
11:4ותאמר זך לקחי ובר הייתי בעיניך׃
11:5ואולם מי יתן אלוה דבר ויפתח שׂפתיו עמך׃
11:6ויגד לך תעלמות חכמה כי כפלים לתושׁיה ודע כי ישׁה לך אלוה מעונך׃
11:7החקר אלוה תמצא אם עד תכלית שׁדי תמצא׃
11:8גבהי שׁמים מה תפעל עמקה משׁאול מה תדע׃
11:9ארכה מארץ מדה ורחבה מני ים׃
11:10אם יחלף ויסגיר ויקהיל ומי ישׁיבנו׃
11:11כי הוא ידע מתי שׁוא וירא און ולא יתבונן׃
11:12ואישׁ נבוב ילבב ועיר פרא אדם יולד׃
11:13אם אתה הכינות לבך ופרשׂת אליו כפך׃
11:14אם און בידך הרחיקהו ואל תשׁכן באהליך עולה׃
11:15כי אז תשׂא פניך ממום והיית מצק ולא תירא׃
11:16כי אתה עמל תשׁכח כמים עברו תזכר׃
11:17ומצהרים יקום חלד תעפה כבקר תהיה׃
11:18ובטחת כי ישׁ תקוה וחפרת לבטח תשׁכב׃
11:19ורבצת ואין מחריד וחלו פניך רבים׃
11:20ועיני רשׁעים תכלינה ומנוס אבד מנהם ותקותם מפח נפשׁ׃

 

11:1And Zophar the Naamathite answereth and saith: --
11:2Is a multitude of words not answered? And is a man of lips justified?
11:3Thy devices make men keep silent, Thou scornest, and none is causing blushing!
11:4And thou sayest, `Pure `is' my discourse, And clean I have been in Thine eyes.'
11:5And yet, O that God had spoken! And doth open His lips with thee.
11:6And declare to thee secrets of wisdom, For counsel hath foldings. And know thou that God forgetteth for thee, `Some' of thine iniquity.
11:7By searching dost thou find out God? Unto perfection find out the Mighty One?
11:8Heights of the heavens! -- what dost thou? Deeper than Sheol! -- what knowest thou?
11:9Longer than earth `is' its measure, And broader than the sea.
11:10If He pass on, and shut up, and assemble, Who then dost reverse it?
11:11For he hath known men of vanity, And He seeth iniquity, And one doth not consider `it'!
11:12And empty man is bold, And the colt of a wild ass man is born.
11:13If thou -- thou hast prepared thy heart, And hast spread out unto Him thy hands,
11:14If iniquity `is' in thy hand, put it far off, And let not perverseness dwell in thy tents.
11:15For then thou liftest up thy face from blemish, And thou hast been firm, and fearest not.
11:16For thou dost forget misery, As waters passed away thou rememberest.
11:17And above the noon doth age rise, Thou fliest -- as the morning thou art.
11:18And thou hast trusted because their is hope, And searched -- in confidence thou liest down,
11:19And thou hast rested, And none is causing trembling, And many have entreated thy face;
11:20And the eyes of the wicked are consumed, And refuge hath perished from them, And their hope `is' a breathing out of soul!
