Job 11:1-20
[1] Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and said, [2] Should not the multitude of words be answered? and should a man full of talk be justified? [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 clean in thine eyes. [5] But oh that God would speak, and open his lips against thee; [6] And that he would shew thee the secrets of wisdom, that they are double to that which is! Know therefore that God exacteth of thee less than thine iniquity deserveth. [7] Canst thou by searching find out God? canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection? [8] It is as high as heaven; what canst thou do? deeper than hell; what canst thou know? [9] The measure thereof is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea. [10] If he cut off, and shut up, or gather together, then who can hinder him? [11] For he knoweth vain men: he seeth wickedness also; will he not then consider it? [12] For vain man would be wise, though man be born like a wild ass's colt. [13] If thou prepare thine heart, and stretch out thine hands toward him; [14] If iniquity be in thine hand, put it far away, and let not wickedness dwell in thy tabernacles. [15] For then shalt thou lift up thy face without spot; yea, thou shalt be stedfast, and shalt not fear: [16] Because thou shalt forget thy misery, and remember it as waters that pass away: [17] And thine age shall be clearer than the noonday; thou shalt shine forth, thou shalt be as the morning. [18] And thou shalt be secure, because there is hope; yea, thou shalt dig about thee, and thou shalt take thy rest in safety. [19] Also thou shalt lie down, and none shall make thee afraid; yea, many shall make suit unto thee. [20] But the eyes of the wicked shall fail, and they shall not escape, and their hope shall be as the giving up of the ghost. |

I have heard the check of my reproach, and the spirit of my understanding causeth me to answer. |

Job 2:11
Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that was come upon him, they came every one from his own place; Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite: for they had made an appointment together to come to mourn with him and to comfort him. |
