Job 11:7-11

Zophar Speaks: You Deserve Worse

7 j "Can you find out the deep things of God?
Can you find out the limit of the Almighty?
8 It is k higher than heaven 1 - what can you do?
Deeper than Sheol - what can you know?
9 Its measure is longer than the earth
and broader than the sea.
10 If he l passes through and m imprisons
and summons the court, who can n turn him back?
11 For he knows o worthless men;
when he sees iniquity, will he not consider it?
