bes@Job:8:1 @ Then Baldad the Sauchite answered, and said,

bes@Job:8:2 @ How long wilt thou speak these things, how long shall the breath of thy mouth be abundant in words?

bes@Job:8:3 @ Will the Lord be unjust when he judges; or will he that has made all things (note:)Gr. disturb the just thing(:note) pervert justice?

bes@Job:8:4 @ If thy sons have sinned before him, he has cast them away because of their transgression.

bes@Job:8:5 @ But be thou early in prayer to the Lord Almighty.

bes@Job:8:6 @ If thou art pure and true, he will hearken to thy supplication, and will restore to thee the habitation of righteousness.

bes@Job:8:7 @ Though then thy beginning should be small, yet thy end should be unspeakably great.

bes@Job:8:8 @ For ask of the former generation, and search diligently among the race of our fathers:

bes@Job:8:9 @ (for we are of yesterday, and know (note:)Gr. not(:note) nothing; for our life upon the earth is a shadow:)

bes@Job:8:10 @ shall not these teach thee, and report to thee, and bring out words from their heart?

bes@Job:8:11 @ Does the rush flourish without water, or shall the flag grow up without moisture?

bes@Job:8:12 @ When it is yet on the root, and though it has not been cut down, does not any herb wither before it has received moisture?

bes@Job:8:13 @ Thus then shall be the end of all that forget the (note:)Hebrews. and Alex. «God’; Job knew not God as Jehovah; Comp. Ex strkjv@6:2(:note) Lord: for the hope of the ungodly shall perish.

bes@Job:8:14 @ For his house shall be without inhabitants, and his tent shall prove a spider’s web.

bes@Job:8:15 @ If he should prop up his house, it shall not stand: and when he has taken hold of it, it shall not remain.

bes@Job:8:16 @ For it is moist under the sun, and his branch shall come forth out of his (note:)Or, corruption(:note) dung-heap.

bes@Job:8:17 @ He lies down upon a gathering of stones, and shall live in the mist of flints.

bes@Job:8:18 @ If God should destroy him, his place shall deny him. Hast thou not seen such things,

bes@Job:8:19 @ that such is the overthrow of the ungodly? and out of the earth another shall grow.

bes@Job:8:20 @ For the Lord will by no means reject the harmless man; but he will not receive any gift of the ungodly.

bes@Job:8:21 @ But he will fill with laughter the mouth of the sincere, and their lips with thanksgiving.

bes@Job:8:22 @ But their adversaries shall clothe themselves with shame; and the habitation of the ungodly shall perish.
