- 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.
