Job 11:1-11

New International Version NIV

1 Then Zophar the Naamathite replied:

2 “Are all these words to go unanswered? Is this talker to be vindicated?

3 Will your idle talk reduce others to silence? Will no one rebuke you when you mock?

4 You say to God, ‘My beliefs are flawless and I am pure in your sight.’

5 Oh, how I wish that God would speak, that he would open his lips against you

6 and disclose to you the secrets of wisdom, for true wisdom has two sides. Know this: God has even forgotten some of your sin.

7 “Can you fathom the mysteries of God? Can you probe the limits of the Almighty?

8 They are higher than the heavens above—what can you do? They are deeper than the depths below—what can you know?

9 Their measure is longer than the earth and wider than the sea.

10 “If he comes along and confines you in prison and convenes a court, who can oppose him?

11 Surely he recognizes deceivers; and when he sees evil, does he not take note?
