Chapter 18

1


 

  Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,  

 

 

-

2


 

  How long [will it be ere] ye make an end of words? mark, and afterwards we will speak.  

 

 

-

3


 

  Wherefore are we counted as beasts, [and] reputed vile in your sight?  

 

 

-

4


 

  He teareth himself in his anger: shall the earth be forsaken for thee? and shall the rock be removed out of his place?  

 

 

-

5


 

  Yea, 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 tabernacle, and his candle shall be put out with him.  

 

 

-

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 a snare.  

 

 

-

9


 

  The gin shall take [him] by the heel, [and] the robber shall prevail against him.  

 

 

-

10


 

  The snare [is] laid for him in the ground, and a trap for him in the way.  

 

 

-

11


 

  Terrors shall make him afraid on every side, and shall drive him to his feet.  

 

 

-

12


 

  His strength shall be hungerbitten, and destruction [shall be] ready at his side.  

 

 

-

13


 

  It shall devour the strength of his skin: [even] the firstborn of death shall devour his strength.  

 

 

-

14


 

  His confidence shall be rooted out of his tabernacle, and it shall bring him to the king of terrors.  

 

 

-

15


 

  It shall dwell in his tabernacle, because [it 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 neither have son nor nephew among his people, nor any remaining in his dwellings.  

 

 

-

20


 

  They that come after [him] shall be astonied at his day, as they that went before were affrighted.  

 

 

-

21


 

  Surely such [are] the dwellings of the wicked, and this [is] the place [of him that] knoweth not God.
