Job 11:12-19
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 11

12 An idiot will become intelligent When a wild donkey is born a human. 13'If you would direct your heart rightly And spread out your hands to Him, 14If wrongdoing is in your hand, put it far away, And do not let malice dwell in your tents; 15Then, indeed, you could lift up your face without moral blemish, And you would be firmly established and not fear. 16For you would forget your trouble; Like waters that have passed by, you would remember it. 17Your life would be brighter than noonday; Darkness would be like the morning. 18Then you would trust, because there is hope; And you would look around and rest securely. 19You would lie down and none would disturb you, And many would flatter you.
King James Version

Chapter 11

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

Chapter 11

12But a stupid person will gain understanding as soon as a wild donkey is born a human! 13As for you, if you redirect your heart and spread out your hands to him in prayer— 14if there is iniquity in your hand, remove it, and don’t allow injustice to dwell in your tents— 15then you will hold your head high, free from fault. You will be firmly established and unafraid. 16For you will forget your suffering, recalling it only as water that has flowed by. 17Your life will be brighter than noonday; its darkness will be like the morning.
18You will be confident, because there is hope. You will look carefully about and lie down in safety. 19You will lie down with no one to frighten you, and many will seek your favor.
New Living Translation

Chapter 11

12An empty-headed person won’t become wise any more than a wild donkey can bear a human child.
13'If only you would prepare your heart and lift up your hands to him in prayer! 14Get rid of your sins, and leave all iniquity behind you. 15Then your face will brighten with innocence. You will be strong and free of fear. 16You will forget your misery; it will be like water flowing away. 17Your life will be brighter than the noonday. Even darkness will be as bright as morning. 18Having hope will give you courage. You will be protected and will rest in safety. 19You will lie down unafraid, and many will look to you for help.
English Standard Version

Chapter 11

12But a stupid man will get understanding when a wild donkey 's colt is born a man! 13"If you prepare your heart, you will stretch out your hands toward him. 14If iniquity is in your hand, put it far away, and let not injustice dwell in your tents. 15Surely then you will lift up your face without blemish; you will be secure and will not fear. 16You will forget your misery; you will remember it as waters that have passed away. 17And your life will be brighter than the noonday; its darkness will be like the morning. 18And you will feel secure, because there is hope; you will look around and take your rest in security. 19You will lie down, and none will make you afraid; many will court your favor.
New International Version

Chapter 11

12But the witless can no more become wise than a wild donkey’s colt can be born human. 13"Yet if you devote your heart to him and stretch out your hands to him, 14if you put away the sin that is in your hand and allow no evil to dwell in your tent, 15then, free of fault, you will lift up your face; you will stand firm and without fear. 16You will surely forget your trouble, recalling it only as waters gone by. 17Life will be brighter than noonday, and darkness will become like morning. 18You will be secure, because there is hope; you will look about you and take your rest in safety. 19You will lie down, with no one to make you afraid, and many will court your favor.
New King James Version

Chapter 11

12For an empty-headed man will be wise, When a wild donkey’s colt is born a man. 13“If you would prepare your heart, And stretch out your hands toward Him; 14If iniquity were in your hand, and you put it far away, And would not let wickedness dwell in your tents; 15 Then surely you could lift up your face without spot; Yes, you could be steadfast, and not fear; 16Because you would forget your misery, And remember it as waters that have passed away, 17And your life would be brighter than noonday. Though you were dark, you would be like the morning. 18And you would be secure, because there is hope; Yes, you would dig around you, and take your rest in safety. 19You would also lie down, and no one would make you afraid; Yes, many would court your favor.
