Job 11:18

Verse 18 of 20. The 11th of 42 chapters in Job, in Poetry and Wisdom.

14If iniquity is in your hand, put it far away. Don’t let unrighteousness dwell in your tents.

15Surely then you will lift up your face without spot. Yes, you will be steadfast, and will not fear,

16for you will forget your misery. You will remember it like waters that have passed away.

17Life will be clearer than the noonday. Though there is darkness, it will be as the morning.

18You will be secure, because there is hope. Yes, you will search, and will take your rest in safety.

19Also you will lie down, and no one will make you afraid. Yes, many will court your favor.

20But the eyes of the wicked will fail. They will have no way to flee. Their hope will be the giving up of the spirit.”
