| 1 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said, |
|
|
2 How long will ye hunt for words?
Consider, and afterwards we will speak.
|
|
|
3 Wherefore are we counted as beasts,
And are become unclean in your sight?
|
|
|
4 Thou that tearest thy soul in thine anger,
Shall the earth be forsaken for thee?
Or shall the rock be removed out of its place?
|
|
|
5 Yes, the light of the wicked shall be put out,
And the spark of his fire shall not shine.
|
|
|
6 The light shall be dark in his tent,
And his lamp above him shall be put out.
|
|
|
7 The steps of his strength shall be straitened,
And his own counsel shall cast him down.
|
|
|
8 For he is cast into a net by his own feet,
And he walketh upon the toils.
|
|
|
9 A gin shall take him by the heel,
And a snare shall lay hold on him.
|
|
|
10 A noose is hid for him in the ground,
And a trap for him in the way.
|
|
|
11 Terrors shall make him afraid on every side,
And shall chase him at his heels.
|
|
|
12 His strength shall be hunger-bitten,
And calamity shall be ready at his side.
|
|
|
13 The members of his body shall be devoured,
Yes, the firstborn of death shall devour his members.
|
|
|
14 He shall be rooted out of his tent wherein he trusteth;
And he shall be brought to the king of terrors.
|
|
|
15 There shall dwell in his tent that which is none of his:
Brimstone shall be scattered upon his habitation.
|
|
|
16 His roots shall be dried up beneath,
And above shall his branch be cut off.
|
|
|
17 His remembrance shall perish from the earth,
And he shall have no name in the street.
|
|
|
18 He shall be driven from light into darkness,
And chased out of the world.
|
|
|
19 He shall have neither son nor son’s son among his people,
Nor any remaining where he sojourned.
|
|
|
20 They that come after shall be astonished at his day,
As they that went before were affrighted.
|
|
|
21 Surely such are the dwellings of the unrighteous,
And this is the place of him that knoweth not God. |
