- 1. Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
- 2. How long will ye hunt for words? Consider, and afterwards we will speak.
- 3. Wherefore are we counted as beasts, [And] are become unclean in your sight?
- 4. Thou that tearest thyself in thine anger, Shall the earth be forsaken for thee? Or shall the rock be removed out of its place?
- 5. Yea, the light of the wicked shall be put out, And the spark of his fire shall not shine.
- 6. The light shall be dark in his tent, And his lamp above him shall be put out.
- 7. The steps of his strength shall be straitened, And his own counsel shall cast him down.
- 8. For he is cast into a net by his own feet, And he walketh upon the toils.
- 9. A gin shall take [him] by the heel, [And] a snare shall lay hold on him.
- 10. A noose is hid for him in the ground, And a trap for him in the way.
- 11. Terrors shall make him afraid on every side, And shall chase him at his heels.
- 12. His strength shall be hunger-bitten, And calamity shall be ready at his side.
- 13. The members of his body shall be devoured, [Yea], the first-born of death shall devour his members.
- 14. He shall be rooted out of his tent where he trusteth; And he shall be brought to the king of terrors.
- 15. There shall dwell in his tent that which is none of his: Brimstone shall be scattered upon his habitation.
- 16. His roots shall be dried up beneath, And above shall his branch be cut off.
- 17. His remembrance shall perish from the earth, And he shall have no name in the street.
- 18. He shall be driven from light into darkness, And chased out of the world.
- 19. He shall have neither son nor son’s son among his people, Nor any remaining where he sojourned.
- 20. They that come after shall be astonished at his day, As they that went before were affrighted.
- 21. Surely such are the dwellings of the unrighteous, And this is the place of him that knoweth not God.
