The measure thereof [is] longer than the earth, and broader than the sea (11:9) If he cut off, and shut up, or gather together, then who can hinder him? (11:10) For he knoweth vain men: he seeth wickedness also; will he not then consider [it]? (11:11) For vain man would be wise, though man be born [like] a wild ass's colt (11:12) If thou prepare thine heart, and stretch out thine hands toward him; (11:13) If iniquity [be] in thine hand, put it far away, and let not wickedness dwell in thy tabernacles (11:14) For then shalt thou lift up thy face without spot; yea, thou shalt be stedfast, and shalt not fear: (11:15) Because thou shalt forget [thy] misery, [and] remember [it] as waters [that] pass away: (11:16) And [thine] age shall be clearer than the noonday; thou shalt shine forth, thou shalt be as the morning (11:17) And thou shalt be secure, because there is hope; yea, thou shalt dig [about thee, and] thou shalt take thy rest in safety (11:18) Also thou shalt lie down, and none shall make [thee] afraid; yea, many shall make suit unto thee (11:19) 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
(11:20)
