King James Version (KJV)

Job 11:3

“Should thy lies make men hold their peace? and when thou mockest, shall no man make thee ashamed?”

Verse in context — Job 11

Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and said,

Should not the multitude of words be answered? and should a man full of talk be justified?

Should thy lies make men hold their peace? and when thou mockest, shall no man make thee ashamed?

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;

A poetic exploration of suffering, faith, and God’s sovereignty.
