Job 11:11-15

Zophar Speaks: You Deserve Worse

11 For he knows o worthless men;
when he sees iniquity, will he not consider it?
 12 But a stupid man will get understanding
when p a wild donkey's colt is q born a man!

13 "If you r prepare your heart,
you will s stretch out your hands toward him.
 14 If iniquity is in your hand, put it far away,
and let not injustice dwell in your tents.
 15 Surely then you will t lift up your face without u blemish;
you will be secure and will not fear.
