Job 18
- 1 Then Bildad the Shuhite made answer and said,
- 2 How long will it be before you have done talking? Get wisdom, and then we will say what is in our minds.
- 3 Why do we seem as beasts in your eyes, and as completely without knowledge?
- 4 But come back, now, come: you who are wounding yourself in your passion, will the earth be given up because of you, or a rock be moved out of its place?
- 5 For the light of the sinner is put out, and the flame of his fire is not shining.
- 6 The light is dark in his tent, and the light shining over him is put out.
- 7 The steps of his strength become short, and by his design destruction overtakes him.
- 8 His feet take him into the net, and he goes walking into the cords.
- 9 His foot is taken in the net; he comes into its grip.
- 10 The twisted cord is put secretly in the earth to take him, and the cord is placed in his way.
- 11 He is overcome by fears on every side, they go after him at every step.
- 12 His strength is made feeble for need of food, and destruction is waiting for his falling footstep.
- 13 His skin is wasted by disease, and his body is food for the worst of diseases.
- 14 He is pulled out of his tent where he was safe, and he is taken away to the king of fears.
- 15 In his tent will be seen that which is not his, burning stone is dropped on his house.
- 16 Under the earth his roots are dry, and over it his branch is cut off.
- 17 His memory is gone from the earth, and in the open country there is no knowledge of his name.
- 18 He is sent away from the light into the dark; he is forced out of the world.
- 19 He has no offspring or family among his people, and in his living-place there is no one of his name.
- 20 At his fate those of the west are shocked, and those of the east are overcome with fear.
- 21 Truly, these are the houses of the sinner, and this is the place of him who has no knowledge of God.
