New Living Translation (NLT)
Job 11
15 Then your face will brighten with innocence. You will be strong and free of fear.
16 You will forget your misery; it will be like water flowing away.
17 Your life will be brighter than the noonday. Even darkness will be as bright as morning.
18 Having hope will give you courage. You will be protected and will rest in safety.
19 You will lie down unafraid, and many will look to you for help.
20 But the wicked will be blinded. They will have no escape. Their only hope is death.”
Job 12
1 Then Job spoke again:
2 “You people really know everything, don’t you? And when you die, wisdom will die with you!
3 Well, I know a few things myself— and you’re no better than I am. Who doesn’t know these things you’ve been saying?
4 Yet my friends laugh at me, for I call on God and expect an answer. I am a just and blameless man, yet they laugh at me.
5 People who are at ease mock those in trouble. They give a push to people who are stumbling.
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
