Verse
Job - ch 18 v 1 - 20
- Then Bildad the Shuhite answered,
- "How long will you hunt for words? Consider, and afterwards we will speak.
- Why are we counted as animals, which have become unclean in your sight?
- You who tear yourself in your anger, shall the earth be forsaken for you? Or shall the rock be removed out of its place?
- "Yes, the light of the wicked shall be put out, The spark of his fire shall not shine.
- The light shall be dark in his tent. His lamp above him shall be put out.
- The steps of his strength shall be shortened. His own counsel shall cast him down.
- For he is cast into a net by his own feet, and he wanders into its mesh.
- A snare will take him by the heel. A trap will catch him.
- A noose is hidden for him in the ground, a trap for him in the way.
- Terrors shall make him afraid on every side, and shall chase him at his heels.
- His strength shall be famished. Calamity shall be ready at his side.
- The members of his body shall be devoured. The firstborn of death shall devour his members.
- He shall be rooted out of his tent where he trusts. He shall be brought to the king of terrors.
- There shall dwell in his tent that which is none of his. Sulfur shall be scattered on his habitation.
- His roots shall be dried up beneath. Above shall his branch be cut off.
- His memory shall perish from the earth. He shall have no name in the street.
- He shall be driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world.
- He shall have neither son nor grandson among his people, nor any remaining where he sojourned.
- Those who come after shall be astonished at his day, as those who went before were frightened.
