versetul 1

Then Zophar, the Naamathite, answered,

versetul 2

“Shouldn’t the multitude of words be answered? Should a man full of talk be justified?

versetul 3

Should your boastings make men hold their peace? When you mock, will no man make you ashamed?

versetul 4

For you say, ‘My doctrine is pure. I am clean in your eyes.’

versetul 5

But oh that God would speak, and open his lips against you,

versetul 6

that he would show you the secrets of wisdom! For true wisdom has two sides. Know therefore that God exacts of you less than your iniquity deserves.

versetul 7

“Can you fathom the mystery of God? Or can you probe the limits of the Almighty?

versetul 8

They are high as heaven. What can you do? They are deeper than Sheol. What can you know?

versetul 9

Its measure is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.

versetul 10

If he passes by, or confines, or convenes a court, then who can oppose him?

versetul 11

For he knows false men. He sees iniquity also, even though he doesn’t consider it.

versetul 12

An empty-headed man becomes wise when a man is born as a wild donkey’s colt.

versetul 13

“If you set your heart aright, stretch out your hands toward him.

versetul 14

If iniquity is in your hand, put it far away. Don’t let unrighteousness dwell in your tents.

versetul 15

Surely then you will lift up your face without spot. Yes, you will be steadfast, and will not fear,

versetul 16

for you will forget your misery. You will remember it like waters that have passed away.

versetul 17

Life will be clearer than the noonday. Though there is darkness, it will be as the morning.

versetul 18

You will be secure, because there is hope. Yes, you will search, and will take your rest in safety.

versetul 19

Also you will lie down, and no one will make you afraid. Yes, many will court your favor.

versetul 20

But the eyes of the wicked will fail. They will have no way to flee. Their hope will be the giving up of the spirit.”
