Job 11:3

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Should thy lies make men hold their peace? and when thou mockest, shall no man make thee ashamed?

But ye are forgers of lies; Ye are all physicians of no value.

Should a wise man make answer with vain knowledge, And fill himself with the east wind?

And if it be not so now, who will prove me a liar, And make my speech nothing worth?

I am as one that is a laughing-stock to his neighbor, I who called upon God, and he answered: The just, the perfect man is a laughing-stock.

Is it good that he should search you out? Or as one deceiveth a man, will ye deceive him?

Surely there are mockers with me, And mine eye dwelleth upon their provocation.

What man is like Job, Who drinketh up scoffing like water,

Like the profane mockers in feasts, They gnashed upon me with their teeth.

I sat not in the assembly of them that make merry, nor rejoiced; I sat alone because of thy hand; for thou hast filled me with indignation.

That they said to you, In the last time there shall be mockers, walking after their own ungodly lusts.

Fill their faces with confusion, That they may seek thy name, O Jehovah.

And if any man obeyeth not our word by this epistle, note that man, that ye have no company with him, to the end that he may be ashamed.

sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of us.

Will ye speak unrighteously for God, And talk deceitfully for him?

Who goeth in company with the workers of iniquity, And walketh with wicked men?
