Job 18
|
|
| 18:1
Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said, |
|
| 18:2
How long will it be ere ye make an end of words? mark, and afterwards we
will speak. |
|
| 18:3
Wherefore are we counted as beasts, and reputed vile in your sight? |
|
| 18:4
He teareth himself in his anger: shall the earth be forsaken for thee? and
shall the rock be removed out of his place? |
|
| 18:5
Yea, the light of the wicked shall be put out, and the spark of his fire
shall not shine. |
|
| 18:6
The light shall be dark in his tabernacle, and his candle shall be put out
with him. |
|
| 18:7
The steps of his strength shall be straitened, and his own counsel shall
cast him down. |
|
| 18:8
For he is cast into a net by his own feet, and he walketh upon a snare. |
|
| 18:9
The gin shall take him by the heel, and the robber shall prevail against
him. |
|
| 18:10
The snare is laid for him in the ground, and a trap for him in the way. |
|
| 18:11
Terrors shall make him afraid on every side, and shall drive him to his
feet. |
|
| 18:12
His strength shall be hungerbitten, and destruction shall be ready at his
side. |
|
| 18:13
It shall devour the strength of his skin: even the firstborn of death
shall devour his strength. |
|
| 18:14
His confidence shall be rooted out of his tabernacle, and it shall bring
him to the king of terrors. |
|
| 18:15
It shall dwell in his tabernacle, because it is none of his: brimstone
shall be scattered upon his habitation. |
|
| 18:16
His roots shall be dried up beneath, and above shall his branch be cut
off. |
|
| 18:17
His remembrance shall perish from the earth, and he shall have no name in
the street. |
|
| 18:18
He shall be driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world. |
|
| 18:19
He shall neither have son nor nephew among his people, nor any remaining
in his dwellings. |
|
| 18:20
They that come after him shall be astonied at his day, as they that went
before were affrighted. |
|
| 18:21
Surely such are the dwellings of the wicked, and this is the place of him
that knoweth not God.
