¹ Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and sayde,² Should not the multitude of wordes be answered? or should a great talker be iustified?³ Should men holde their peace at thy lyes? & when thou mockest others, shall none make thee ashamed?⁴ For thou hast sayde, My doctrine is pure, and I am cleane in thine eyes.⁵ But, oh that God would speake and open his lippes against thee!⁶ That he might shewe thee the secretes of wisedome, howe thou hast deserued double, according to right: know therefore that God hath forgotten thee for thine iniquitie.

⁷ Canst thou by searching finde out God? canst thou finde out ye Almighty to his perfection?⁸ The heauens are hie, what canst thou doe? it is deeper then the hel, how canst thou know it?⁹ The measure thereof is longer then the earth, and it is broader then the sea.¹⁰ If hee cut off and shut vp, or gather together, who can turne him backe?¹¹ For hee knoweth vaine men, and seeth iniquitie, and him that vnderstandeth nothing.¹² Yet vaine man would be wise, though man new borne is like a wilde asse colte.

¹³ If thou prepare thine heart, and stretch out thine hands toward him:¹⁴ If iniquitie be in thine hand, put it farre away, and let no wickednesse dwell in thy Tabernacle.¹⁵ The truely shalt thou lift vp thy face without spot, and shalt be stable, and shalt not feare.¹⁶ But thou shalt forget thy miserie, and remember it as waters that are past.¹⁷ Thine age also shall appeare more cleare then the noone day: thou shalt shine and bee as the morning.¹⁸ And thou shalt bee bolde, because there is hope: and thou shalt digge pittes, and shalt lye downe safely.¹⁹ For when thou takest thy rest, none shal make thee afraide: yea, many shall make sute vnto thee.²⁰ But the eyes of the wicked shall faile, and their refuge shall perish, and their hope shalbe sorow of minde.
