约伯记11-智慧

约伯记11章中

¹Then Zophar the Naamathite replied to Job: ²“Shouldn’t someone answer this torrent of words?Is a person proved innocent just by a lot of talking? ³Should I remain silent while you babble on?When you mock God, shouldn’t someone make you ashamed? ⁴You claim, ‘My beliefs are pure, ’and ‘I am clean in the sight of God.’ ⁵If only God would speak;if only he would tell you what he thinks! ⁶If only he would tell you the secrets of wisdom, for true wisdom is not a simple matter.Listen! God is doubtless punishing youfar less than you deserve! ⁷“Can you solve the mysteries of God?Can you discover everything about the Almighty? ⁸Such knowledge is higher than the heavens - and who are you?It is deeper than the underworld#11:8 Hebrew than Sheol. - what do you know? ⁹It is broader than the earthand wider than the sea. ¹⁰If God comes and puts a person in prisonor calls the court to order, who can stop him? ¹¹For he knows those who are false, and he takes note of all their sins. ¹²An empty-headed person won’t become wiseany more than a wild donkey can bear a human child.#11:12 Or than a wild male donkey can bear a tame colt. ¹³“If only you would prepare your heartand lift up your hands to him in prayer! ¹⁴Get rid of your sins, and leave all iniquity behind you. ¹⁵Then your face will brighten with innocence.You will be strong and free of fear. ¹⁶You will forget your misery;it will be like water flowing away. ¹⁷Your life will be brighter than the noonday.Even darkness will be as bright as morning. ¹⁸Having hope will give you courage.You will be protected and will rest in safety. ¹⁹You will lie down unafraid, and many will look to you for help. ²⁰But the wicked will be blinded.They will have no escape.Their only hope is death.”
