Job 11:7 - Forerunner Commentary

Job 11:7

5 But oh, that God would speak,
And open His lips against you,

6 That He would show you the secrets of wisdom!
For they would double your prudence.
Know therefore that ^aGod exacts from you
Less than your iniquity deserves.

7 “Can^a you search out the deep things of God?
Can you find out the limits of the Almighty?

8 They are higher than heaven— what can you do?
Deeper than¹ Sheol— what can you know?

9 Their measure is longer than the earth
And broader than the sea.

10 “If^a He passes by, imprisons, and gathers to judgment,
Then who can¹ hinder Him?

11 For ^aHe knows deceitful men;
He sees wickedness also.
Will He not then consider it?
