11:11 For he knoweth vain men: he seeth wickedness also; will he not then consider it?
11:12 For vain men would be wise, though man be born like a wild ass's colt.
11:13 If thou prepare thine heart, and stretch out thine hands toward him;
11:14 If iniquity be in thine hand, put it far away, and let not wickedness dwell in thy tabernacles.
11:15 For then shalt thou lift up thy face without spot; yea, thou shalt be stedfast, and shalt not fear:
11:16 Because thou shalt forget thy misery, and remember it as waters that pass away:
11:17 And thine age shall be clearer than the noonday: thou shalt shine forth, thou shalt be as the morning.
11:18 And thou shalt be secure, because there is hope; yea, thou shalt dig about thee, and thou shalt take thy rest in safety.
11:19 Also thou shalt lie down, and none shall make thee afraid; yea, many shall make suit unto thee.
11:20 But the eyes of the wicked shall fail, and they shall not escape, and their hope shall be as the giving up of the ghost.
