Job 11:10-20

10“If he comes along and confines you in prison and convenes a court, who can oppose him?

11Surely he recognizes deceivers; and when he sees evil, does he not take note?

12But the witless can no more become wise than a wild donkey’s colt can be born human. Or wild donkey can be born tame

13“Yet if you devote your heart to him and stretch out your hands to him,

14if you put away the sin that is in your hand and allow no evil to dwell in your tent,

15then, free of fault, you will lift up your face; you will stand firm and without fear.

16You will surely forget your trouble, recalling it only as waters gone by.

17Life will be brighter than noonday, and darkness will become like morning.

18You will be secure, because there is hope; you will look about you and take your rest in safety.

19You will lie down, with no one to make you afraid, and many will court your favor. 20But the eyes of the wicked will fail, and escape will elude them; their hope will become a dying gasp.”
