1   Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and sayde,


2   Should not the multitude of wordes be answered? or should a great note talker be iustified?


3   Should men holde their peace at thy lyes? & when thou mockest others, shall none make thee The perfection of God. ashamed?


4   For thou hast sayde, note My doctrine is pure, and I am cleane in thine eyes.


5   But, oh that God would speake and open his lippes against thee!


6   That he might shewe thee the note secretes of wisedome, howe thou hast deserued double, according to right: know therefore that God hath forgotten thee for thine iniquitie.


7   Canst thou by searching finde out God? canst thou finde out þe; Almighty to his perfection?

17   Thine age also shall appeare more cleare then the noone day: thou shalt shine and bee as the morning.


18   And thou shalt bee bolde, because there is hope: and thou shalt digge pittes, and shalt lye downe safely.


19    noteFor when thou takest thy rest, none shal make thee afraide: yea, many shall make sute vnto thee.


20   But the eyes note of the wicked shall faile, and their refuge shall perish, and their hope shalbe sorow of minde.
