18 And why hast thou brought me out of the womb? let me die when no eye had seen me;

19 That I might be carried from the womb to the tomb as one who had not been!

20 Are not my days short? Leave me, depart from me, that I may be a little encouraged;

21 before I depart, and return no more, to the land of darkness and the shadow of death,

22 Into the land of darkness, such as is the darkness of the shadow of death, where there is no order, where it is as dark as darkness itself.

Chapter 11

1 And Zophar the Naamitite answered and said,

2 Is it not possible to give an answer to a multitude of words, and is a man who talks right in words?

3 Shall thy idle talk cause men to be silent, that thou mayest mock, and there shall be no one to shame thee?

4 Thou hast said, My judgment is right, and I am pure in thy sight.

5 But if God had spoken, and opened his mouth to thee,

6 And he hath revealed unto thee the mysteries of wisdom, which thou shouldst have borne twice as much! Therefore know that God has forgotten some of your iniquities for you.

7 Can You Find God by Searching? Can you fully comprehend the Almighty?

8 He is above the heavens, what can you do? deeper than hell, what can you know?

9 His measure is longer than the earth, and wider than the sea.

10 If he pass by, and put someone in chains, and bring him to judgment, who will reject him?

11 For he knoweth men that lie and sees iniquity, and will he leave it unattended?

12 But the empty man is wise, though man is born like a wild colt.

13 If thou shalt straighten thy heart, and stretch out thy hands unto him,

14 And if there be a blemish in thy hand, and thou wilt take it away, and let not iniquity dwell in thy tents,

15 then thou shalt lift up thy face without spot, and shalt be strong, and shalt not be afraid.
