Job
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.
