1 Then Tzofar, the Na`amatite, answered,
2 "Shouldn't the multitude of words be answered? Should a man full of talk be justified?
3 Should your boastings make men hold their shalom? When you mock, shall no man make you ashamed?
4 For you say, 'My doctrine is pure, I am clean in your eyes.'
5 But oh that God would speak, And open his lips against you,
6 That he would show you the secrets of wisdom! For true wisdom has two sides. Know therefore that God exacts of you less than your iniquity deserves.
7 "Can you fathom the mystery of God? Or can you probe the limits of Shaddai?
8 They are high as heaven. What can you do? Deeper than She'ol: what can you know?
9 The measure of it is longer than the eretz, And broader than the sea.
10 If he passes by, or confines, Or convenes a court, then who can oppose him?
11 For he knows false men. He sees iniquity also, even though he doesn't consider it.
12 But vain man can become wise If a man can be born as a wild donkey's colt.
13 "If you set your heart aright, Stretch out your hands toward him.
14 If iniquity is in your hand, put it far away, Don't let unrighteousness dwell in your tents.
15 Surely then shall you lift up your face without spot; Yes, you shall be steadfast, and shall not fear:
16 For you shall forget your misery; You shall remember it as waters that are passed away,
17 Life shall be clearer than the noonday; Though there is darkness, it shall be as the morning.
18 You shall be secure, because there is hope; Yes, you shall search, and shall take your rest in safety.
19 Also you shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid; Yes, many shall court your favor.
20 But the eyes of the wicked shall fail, They shall have no way to flee; Their hope shall be the giving up of the spirit."
