Job 11:13-20

Expanded Bible

¹³ “You must ·give your whole heart to him [focus your heart]
    and ·hold [spread] out your hands to him for help.
¹⁴ ·Put away [Remove] the sin that is in your hand;
    let no ·evil [iniquity] ·remain [^Ltake up residence] in your tent [^CZophar urges Job to repent].
¹⁵ Then you can lift up your face without ·shame [^Lblemish],
    and you can ·stand strong [^Lbe secure] without fear.
¹⁶ You will forget your trouble
    and remember it only as water ·gone by [running away].
¹⁷ Your life will be ·as bright as [brighter than] the noonday sun,
    and darkness will seem like morning.
¹⁸ You will ·feel safe [be secure] because there is hope;
    you will ·look around [explore] and ·rest [^Llie down] in safety.
¹⁹ You will lie down, and ·no one will scare you [^Lnot tremble with fear].
    Many people will want favors from you.
²⁰ But the ·wicked will not be able to see [^Leyes of the wicked will fail],
    so ·they will not escape [^Ltheir escape route will be lost to them].
    Their only ·hope [expectation] will be to die.”
