And that he would shew thee the secrets of wisdom, that [they are] double to that which is! Know therefore that God exacteth of thee [less] than thine iniquity [deserveth].
Canst thou by searching find out God? canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection?
[It is] as high as heaven; what canst thou do? deeper than hell; what canst thou know?
The measure thereof [is] longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.
If he cut off, and shut up, or gather together, then who can hinder him?
For he knoweth vain men: he seeth wickedness also; will he not then consider [it]?
For vain man would be wise, though man be born [like] a wild ass's colt.
If thou prepare thine heart, and stretch out thine hands toward him;
If iniquity [be] in thine hand, put it far away, and let not wickedness dwell in thy tabernacles.
For then shalt thou lift up thy face without spot; yea, thou shalt be stedfast, and shalt not fear:
