| 1 | Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and said, |
| 2 | Should not the multitude of words be answered? and should man ful of talke be iustified? |
| 3 | Should thy lies make men hold their peace? and when thou mockest, shall no man make thee ashamed? |
| 4 | For thou hast said, My doctrine is pure, and I am cleane in thine eyes. |
| 5 | But, O that God would speake, and open his lippes against thee, |
| 6 | And that he would shew thee the secrets of wisedome, that they are double to that which is: know therefore that God exacteth of thee lesse then thine iniquitie deserueth. |
| 7 | Canst thou by searching finde out God? canst thou finde out the Almightie vnto perfection? |
| 8 | It is as high as heauen, what canst thou doe? deeper then hell, what canst thou know? |
| 9 | The measure therof is longer then the earth, and broader then the sea. |
| 10 | If he cut off, and shut vp, or gather together, then who can hinder him? |
| 11 | For, he knoweth vaine men: hee seeth wickednesse also, will he not then consider it? |
| 12 | For vaine man would be wise; though man be borne like a wilde asses coult. |
| 13 | If thou prepare thine heart, and stretch out thine hands toward him: |
| 14 | If iniquitie be in thine hand, put it farre away, and let not wickednes dwell in thy tabernacles. |
| 15 | For then shalt thou lift vp thy face without spot, yea thou shalt be stedfast, and shalt not feare: |
| 16 | Because thou shalt forget thy misery, and remember it as waters that passe away: |
| 17 | And thine age shalbe clearer then the noone day; thou shalt shine foorth, thou shalt be as the morning. |
| 18 | And thou shalt be secure because there is hope, yea thou shalt digge about thee, and thou shalt take thy rest in safety. |
| 19 | Also thou shalt lye downe, and none shall make thee afraid; yea many shall make suite vnto thee. |
| 20 | But the eyes of the wicked shall faile, and they shall not escape, and their hope shall be as the giuing vp of the ghost. |
