Job - Chapter: 11

>
11:1Forsothe Sophar Naamathites answeride, and seide,
11:2Whether he, that spekith many thingis, schal not also here? ether whethir a man ful of wordis schal be maad iust?
11:3Schulen men be stille to thee aloone? whanne thou hast scorned othere men, schalt thou not be ouercomun of ony man?
11:4For thou seidist, My word is cleene, and Y am cleene in thi siyt.
11:5And `Y wolde, that God spak with thee, and openyde hise lippis to thee;
11:6to schewe to thee the priuetees of wisdom, and that his lawe is manyfold, and thou schuldist vndurstonde, that thou art requirid of hym to paie myche lesse thingis, than thi wickidnesse disserueth.
11:7In hap thou schalt comprehende the steppis of God, and thou schalt fynde Almyyti God `til to perfeccioun.
11:8He is hiyere than heuene, and what schalt thou do? he is deppere than helle, and wherof schalt thou knowe?
11:9His mesure is lengere than erthe, and brodere than the see.
11:10If he distrieth alle thingis, ethir dryueth streitli `in to oon, who schal ayenseie hym? Ethir who may seie to hym, Whi doest thou so?
11:11For he knowith the vanyte of men; and whether he seynge byholdith not wickidnesse?
11:12A veyn man is reisid in to pride; and gessith hym silf borun fre, as the colt of a wilde asse.
11:13But thou hast maad stidefast thin herte, and hast spred abrood thin hondis to hym.
11:14If thou doest awei `fro thee the wickidnesse, which is in thin hond, and vnriytfulnesse dwellith not in thi tabernacle,
11:15thanne thou schalt mowe reise thi face with out wem, and thou schalt be stidefast, and thou schalt not drede.
11:16And thou schalt foryete wretchidnesse, and thou schalt not thenke of it, as of watris that han passid.
11:17And as myddai schynynge it schal reise to thee at euentid; and whanne thou gessist thee wastid, thou schalt rise vp as the dai sterre.
11:18And thou schalt haue trist, while hope schal be set forth to thee; and thou biried schalt slepe sikurli.
11:19Thou schalt reste, and `noon schal be that schal make thee aferd; and ful many men schulen biseche thi face.
11:20But the iyen of wickid men schulen faile; and socour schal perische fro hem, and the hope of hem schal be abhominacyioun of soule.

 

11:1Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and sayde,
11:2Should not the multitude of wordes be answered? or should a great talker be iustified?
11:3Should men holde their peace at thy lyes? and when thou mockest others, shall none make thee ashamed?
11:4For thou hast sayde, My doctrine is pure, and I am cleane in thine eyes.
11:5But, oh that God would speake and open his lippes against thee!
11:6That he might shewe thee the secretes of wisedome, howe thou hast deserued double, according to right: know therefore that God hath forgotten thee for thine iniquitie.
11:7Canst thou by searching finde out God? canst thou finde out ye Almighty to his perfection?
11:8The heauens are hie, what canst thou doe? it is deeper then the hell, how canst thou know it?
11:9The measure thereof is longer then the earth, and it is broader then the sea.
11:10If hee cut off and shut vp, or gather together, who can turne him backe?
11:11For hee knoweth vaine men, and seeth iniquitie, and him that vnderstandeth nothing.
11:12Yet vaine man would be wise, though man new borne is like a wilde asse colte.
11:13If thou prepare thine heart, and stretch out thine hands toward him:
11:14If iniquitie be in thine hand, put it farre away, and let no wickednesse dwell in thy Tabernacle.
11:15The truely shalt thou lift vp thy face without spot, and shalt be stable, and shalt not feare.
11:16But thou shalt forget thy miserie, and remember it as waters that are past.
11:17Thine age also shall appeare more cleare then the noone day: thou shalt shine and bee as the morning.
11:18And thou shalt bee bolde, because there is hope: and thou shalt digge pittes, and shalt lye downe safely.
11:19For when thou takest thy rest, none shall make thee afraide: yea, many shall make sute vnto thee.
11:20But the eyes of the wicked shall faile, and their refuge shall perish, and their hope shalbe sorow of minde.
