New Testament

Job 11:8-17 American Standard Version (ASV)

8. It is high as heaven; what canst thou do? Deeper than Sheol; what canst thou know?

9. The measure thereof is longer than the earth, And broader than the sea.

10. If he pass through, and shut up, And all unto judgment, then who can hinder him?

11. For he knoweth false men: He seeth iniquity also, even though he consider it not.

12. But vain man is void of understanding, Yea, man is born as a wild ass’s colt.

13. If thou set thy heart aright, And stretch out thy hands toward him;

14. If iniquity be in thy hand, put it far away, And let not unrighteousness dwell in thy tents.

15. Surely then shalt thou lift up thy face without spot; Yea, thou shalt be stedfast, and shalt not fear:

16. For thou shalt forget thy misery; Thou shalt remember it as waters that are passed away,

17. And thy life shall be clearer than the noonday; Though there be darkness, it shall be as the morning.
