Job
Job 11:15–19
15then indeed you will lift up your face without blemish;
you will stand firm and unafraid.
16For you will forget your misery,
recalling it only as waters gone by.
17Your life will be brighter than noonday;
its darkness will be like the morning.
18You will be secure, because there is hope,
and you will look around and lie down in safety.
19You will lie down without fear,
and many will court your favor.
