acv@Job:8:1 @ Then Bildad the Shuhite answered, and said,

acv@Job:8:2 @ How long will thou speak these things? And [how long] shall the words of thy mouth be [like] a mighty wind?

acv@Job:8:3 @ Does God pervert justice? Or does the Almighty pervert righteousness?

acv@Job:8:4 @ If thy sons have sinned against him, and he has delivered them into the hand of their transgression,

acv@Job:8:5 @ if thou would seek diligently to God, and make thy supplication to the Almighty,

acv@Job:8:6 @ if thou were pure and upright, surely now he would awake for thee, and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.

acv@Job:8:7 @ And though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end would greatly increase.

acv@Job:8:8 @ For inquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and apply thyself to that which their fathers have searched out

acv@Job:8:9 @ (for we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because our days upon earth are a shadow).

acv@Job:8:10 @ Shall they not teach thee, and tell thee, and utter words out of their heart?

acv@Job:8:11 @ Can the rush grow up without mire? Can a reed grow without water?

acv@Job:8:12 @ While it is yet in its greenness, [and] not cut down, it withers before any [other] herb.

acv@Job:8:13 @ So are the paths of all who forget God. And the hope of the profane man shall perish,

acv@Job:8:14 @ whose confidence shall break apart, and whose trust is a spider's web.

acv@Job:8:15 @ He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand. He shall hold fast thereby, but it shall not endure.

acv@Job:8:16 @ He is green before the sun, and his shoots go forth over his garden.

acv@Job:8:17 @ His roots are wrapped around the [stone] heap. He beholds the place of stones.

acv@Job:8:18 @ If he is destroyed from his place, then it shall deny him, [saying], I have not seen thee.

acv@Job:8:19 @ Behold, this is the joy of his way, and out of the earth others shall spring.

acv@Job:8:20 @ Behold, God will not cast away a perfect man, nor will he uphold the evil-doers.

acv@Job:8:21 @ He will yet fill thy mouth with laughter, and thy lips with shouting.

acv@Job:8:22 @ Those who hate thee shall be clothed with shame, and the tent of the wicked shall be no more.
