New Testament

Job 11:11-20 God's Word Translation (GW)

11. He knows who the scoundrels are.And when he sees sin, doesn’t he pay attention to it?

12. But an empty-headed person will gain understandingwhen a wild donkey is born tame.

13. “If you want to set your heart right,then pray to him.

14. If you’re holding on to sin, put it far away,and don’t let injustice live in your tent.

15. Then you will be able to show your face without being ashamed,and you will be secure and unafraid.

16. ⌊Then⌋ you will forget your miseryand remember it like water that has flowed downstream.

17. Then your life will be brighter than the noonday sun.The darkness in your life will become like morning.

18. You will feel confident because there’s hope,and you will look around and rest in safety.

19. You will lie down with no one to frighten you,and many people will try to gain your favor.

20. But the wicked will lose their eyesight.Their escape route will be closed.Their only hope is to take their last breath.”
