fundiver often has really good analysis.  I'd just like to add that iso raising QJs over limpers OOP is indeed a bit light but I wanted to point out that it's at least close.  If you do a google search on raising over limpers and find the upswing write up it suggests raising hands down to AJs, KJs, KQo and over limping ATs, KTs, QJs in position.  So even in position they suggest over limping here.  Being OOP makes it a little worse but I just thought it was worth mentioning that while it's probably a mistake, it wasn't huge mistake.  As mentioned the iso sizing is also a bit too small.  
I think checking the turn was a larger mistake than the pre flop OOP isolation attempt with QJs.  Getting it to heads up and flopping top pair with a Q kicker is among the best results we can hope for here though.  Given the less than 1/2 pot turn and river sizings we need to have some read that our opponent is super nitty in order to find a fold, and I don't think we have that since it wasn't mentioned.  He could absolutely have a smaller Jx hand and think he has the best hand and be betting for value.
