Job 27:11
9 Will God hear his cry when distress comes upon him?
10 Will he delight in the Almighty? Will he call upon God at all times?
I will instruct you in the power of God. I will not conceal the ways of the Almighty.
12 Surely all of you have seen it for yourselves. Why then do you keep up this empty talk?
13 This is the wicked man’s portion from God— the heritage the ruthless receive from the Almighty.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
