Job 11:5 — Meaning and Application

Should thy lies make men hold their peace? and when thou mockest, shall no man make thee ashamed? {lies: or, devices}

For thou hast said, My doctrine {is} pure, and I am clean in thine eyes.

But oh that God would speak, and open his lips against thee;

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?
