JOB ยท Chapter 18
18:1 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
18:2 How long will it be before all of you 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 tears himself in his anger: shall the earth be forsaken for
you? 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 walks upon a
snare.
18:9 The animal trap 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 famished, 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 astonished 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 knows not God.
