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

noyes@Job:8:2 @ How long wilt thou speak such things? How long shall the words of thy mouth be like a strong wind?

noyes@Job:8:3 @ Will God pervert judgment? Or will the Almighty pervert justice?

noyes@Job:8:4 @ As thy children sinned against him, He hath given them up to their transgression.

noyes@Job:8:5 @ But if thou wilt seek early to God, And make thy supplication to the Almighty,

noyes@Job:8:6 @ If thou wilt be pure and upright, Surely he will yet arise for thee, And prosper thy righteous habitation;

noyes@Job:8:7 @ So that thy beginning shall be small, And thy latter end very great.

noyes@Job:8:8 @ For inquire, I pray thee, of the former age, And mark what hath been searched out by their fathers;

noyes@Job:8:9 @ (For we are of yesterday and know nothing, Since our days upon the earth are but a shadow;)

noyes@Job:8:10 @ Will not they instruct thee, and tell thee, And utter words from their understanding?

noyes@Job:8:11 @ "Can the paperreed grow up without mire? Can the bulrush grow without water?

noyes@Job:8:12 @ While it is yet in its greenness, and is not cut down, It withereth before any other herb.

noyes@Job:8:13 @ Such is the fate of all who forget God; So perisheth the hope of the ungodly.

noyes@Job:8:14 @ His confidence shall come to nought, And his trust shall prove a spiders web.

noyes@Job:8:15 @ He shall lean upon his house, and it shall not stand; He shall lay fast hold on it, but it shall not endure.

noyes@Job:8:16 @ He is in full green before the sun, And his branches shoot forth over his garden;

noyes@Job:8:17 @ His roots are entwined about the heap, And he seeth the place of stones;

noyes@Job:8:18 @ When he shall be destroyed from his place, It shall deny him, saying, I never saw thee.

noyes@Job:8:19 @ Lo! such is the joy of his course! And others shall spring up from his place"

noyes@Job:8:20 @ Behold, God will not cast away an upright man; Nor will he help the evildoers.

noyes@Job:8:21 @ While he filleth thy mouth with laughter, And thy lips with gladness,

noyes@Job:8:22 @ They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame, And the dwellingplace of the wicked shall come to nought.
