Job 11:6-8
Expanded Bible

6 and tell you the secrets of wisdom,
    because ·wisdom [resourcefulness] has ·two [or many] sides.
Know this: God has even forgotten some of your sin [C he has been tolerant of Job’s sin].
7 “Can you ·understand [L discover] the ·secrets [L deep things] of God?
    Can you ·search [L discover] the limits of ·the Almighty [Shaddai]?
8 His limits are higher than the heavens; ·you cannot reach them [L what can you do]!
    They are deeper than ·the grave [L Sheol]; you cannot understand them!

6 and that he would tell you the secrets of wisdom!
    For wisdom is many-sided.[a]
Know then that God exacts of you less than your guilt deserves.

7 “Can you find out the deep things of God?
    Can you find out the limit of the Almighty?[b]
8 It is higher than heaven[c]—what can you do?
    Deeper than Sheol—what can you know?
