Job 11:13-20
New King James Version
Job 11:13-20
New King James Version
13 “If you would (A)prepare your heart,
And (B)stretch out your hands toward Him;
14 If iniquity were in your hand, and you put it far away,
And (C)would not let wickedness dwell in your tents;
15 (D)Then surely you could lift up your face without spot;
Yes, you could be steadfast, and not fear;
16 Because you would (E)forget your misery,
And remember it as waters that have passed away,
17 And your life (F)would be brighter than noonday.
Though you were dark, you would be like the morning.
18 And you would be secure, because there is hope;
Yes, you would dig around you, and (G)take your rest in safety.
19 You would also lie down, and no one would make you afraid;
Yes, many would court your favor.
20 But (H)the eyes of the wicked will fail,
And they shall not escape,
And (I)their hope—[a]loss of life!”

Job 11:13-20
Authorized (King James) Version
13 If thou prepare thine heart,
and stretch out thine hands toward him;
14 if iniquity be in thine hand, put it far away,
and let not wickedness dwell in thy tabernacles.
15 For then shalt thou lift up thy face without spot;
yea, thou shalt be stedfast, and shalt not fear:
16 because thou shalt forget thy misery,
and remember it as waters that pass away:
17 and thine age shall be clearer than the noonday;
thou shalt shine forth, thou shalt be as the morning.
18 And thou shalt be secure, because there is hope;
yea, thou shalt dig about thee,
and thou shalt take thy rest in safety.
19 Also thou shalt lie down, and none shall make thee afraid;
yea, many shall make suit unto thee.
20 But the eyes of the wicked shall fail,
and they shall not escape,
and their hope shall be as the giving up of the ghost.
