10 Thou art wearied in the greatness of thy way; yet saidst thou not, There is no hope: thou hast found the life of thine hand; therefore thou wast not grieved.

11 And of whom hast thou been afraid or feared, that thou hast lied, and hast not remembered me, nor laid it to thy heart? have not I held my peace even of old, and thou fearest me not?

12 I will declare thy righteousness, and thy works; for they shall not profit thee.

10 You wearied(A) yourself by such going about,
    but you would not say, ‘It is hopeless.’(B)
You found renewal of your strength,(C)
    and so you did not faint.

11 “Whom have you so dreaded and feared(D)
    that you have not been true to me,
and have neither remembered(E) me
    nor taken this to heart?(F)
Is it not because I have long been silent(G)
    that you do not fear me?
12 I will expose your righteousness and your works,(H)
    and they will not benefit you.

10 You are wearied in the length of your way;
(A)Yet you did not say, ‘There is no hope.’
You have found the life of your hand;
Therefore you were not grieved.

11 “And (B)of whom have you been afraid, or feared,
That you have lied
And not remembered Me,
Nor taken it to your heart?
Is it not because (C)I have [a]held My peace from of old
That you do not fear Me?
12 I will declare your righteousness
And your works,
For they will not profit you.
