Job 11:13-20

Common English Bible

¹³ If you make your mind resolute
        and spread your palms to him,
¹⁴     if you throw out the sin in your hands
        and don’t let injustice dwell in your tents,
¹⁵     then you will lift up your face without blemish;
        you will be secure and not fear.
¹⁶ You will forget trouble;
    you will remember it as water that flows past.
¹⁷ A life span will rise brighter than noon;
    darkness will be like morning.
¹⁸ You will be secure, for there is hope;
    you will look around and rest safely.
¹⁹ You will lie down without anyone to scare you;
    many will beg for your favor.
²⁰ The eyes of the wicked will grow faint;
    flight has vanished from them;
    their hope is a dying gasp.
