Job  


18 : 1 Then Bildad the Shuhite responded,
18 : 2 How long will you hunt for words? Show understanding and then we can talk.
18 : 3 Why are we regarded as beasts, As stupid in your eyes?
18 : 4 O you who tear yourself in your anger-- For your sake is the earth to be abandoned, Or the rock to be moved from its place?
18 : 5 Indeed, the light of the wicked goes out, And the flame of his fire gives no light.
18 : 6 The light in his tent is darkened, And his lamp goes out above him.
18 : 7 His vigorous stride is shortened, And his own scheme brings him down.
18 : 8 For he is thrown into the net by his own feet, And he steps on the webbing.
18 : 9 A snare seizes him by the heel, And a trap snaps shut on him.
18 : 10 A noose for him is hidden in the ground, And a trap for him on the path.
18 : 11 All around terrors frighten him, And harry him at every step.
18 : 12 His strength is famished, And calamity is ready at his side.
18 : 13 His skin is devoured by disease, The firstborn of death devours his limbs.
18 : 14 He is torn from the security of his tent, And they march him before the king of terrors.
18 : 15 There dwells in his tent nothing of his; Brimstone is scattered on his habitation.
18 : 16 His roots are dried below, And his branch is cut off above.
18 : 17 Memory of him perishes from the earth, And he has no name abroad.
18 : 18 He is driven from light into darkness, And chased from the inhabited world.
18 : 19 He has no offspring or posterity among his people, Nor any survivor where he sojourned.
18 : 20 Those in the west are appalled at his fate, And those in the east are seized with horror.
18 : 21 Surely such are the dwellings of the wicked, And this is the place of him who does not know God.
