Job 11:13-20

International Children’s Bible

¹³ “You must give your whole heart to him.
    You must hold out your hands to him for help.
¹⁴ Put away the sin that is in your hand.
    Let no evil live in your tent.
¹⁵ Then you can lift up your face without shame.
    You can stand strong without fear.
¹⁶ You will forget your trouble.
    You will remember your troubles only as water that has passed by.
¹⁷ Your life will be as bright as the noonday sun.
    And darkness will seem like morning.
¹⁸ You will feel safe because there is hope.
    You will look around and rest in safety.
¹⁹ You will lie down, and no one will make you afraid.
    Many people will want favor from you.
²⁰ But the wicked people will not be able to see.
    So they will not be able to find the way to escape.
    Their only hope will be to die.”
