Job 11:5 Cross References - EJ2000

⁵ But oh, that God would speak and open his lips against thee

³ Oh, that I knew where I might find him! That I might come even to his seat! ⁴ I would order judgment before him and fill my mouth with arguments. ⁵ I would know the words which he would answer me and understand what he would say unto me. ⁶ Will he plead against me with his great power? No, but rather he would put it in me. ⁷ There the righteous might dispute with him; and should I escape for ever from the one who condemns me.

³⁵ Oh that someone would hear me! Behold, my mark is, that the Almighty will testify for me, even though my adversary had written down the charges.

For he will not answer all of thy words. ¹⁴ ¶ Nevertheless, in one or two manners God speaks to the one who does not see. ¹⁵ In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls upon men, in slumberings upon the bed; ¹⁶ then he opens the ears of men and seals their instruction, ¹⁷ that he may withdraw the man from his own work and cover the man from pride. ¹⁸ Thus he keeps back his soul from the pit and his life from perishing by the sword.

I will lay my hand over my mouth. ⁵ Once I have spoken; but I will not answer; even twice, but I will proceed no further.

⁸ Wilt thou disannul my judgment? Wilt thou condemn me, that thou may be justified?
