Job:18
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Then Bildad the Shuhite answered ,
and said ,
*
How long will ye hunt for words ?
Consider ,
and afterwards we will speak .
*
Why are we counted as beasts , [
and ]
have become unclean in your sight ?
*
Thou who tear thyself in thine anger ,
shall the earth be forsaken for thee ?
Or shall the rock be removed out of its place ?
*
Yea ,
the light of the wicked shall be put out ,
and the spark of his fire shall not shine .
*
The light shall be dark in his tent ,
and his lamp above him shall be put out .
*
The steps of his strength shall be restricted ,
and his own counsel shall cast him down .
*
For he is cast into a net by his own feet ,
and he walks upon the toils .
*
A trap shall take [
him ]
by the heel .
A snare shall lay hold on him .
*
A noose is hid for him in the ground ,
and a trap for him in the way .
*
Terrors shall make him afraid on every side ,
and shall chase him at his heels .
*
His strength shall be weakened by hunger ,
and calamity shall be ready at his side .
*
The members of his body shall be devoured .
The first-born of death shall devour his body-parts .
*
He shall be rooted out of his tent where he trusts ,
and he shall be brought to the king of terrors .
*
There shall dwell in his tent that which is none of his .
Brimstone shall be scattered upon his habitation .
*
His roots shall be dried up beneath ,
and above shall his branch be cut off .
*
His remembrance shall perish from the earth ,
and he shall have no name in the street .
*
He shall be driven from light into darkness ,
and chased out of the world .
*
He shall have neither son nor son '
s son among his people ,
nor any remaining where he sojourned .
*
Those who come after shall be astonished at his day ,
as those who went before were frightened .
*
Surely such are the dwellings of the unrighteous ,
and this is the place of him who does not know God .
