AFV2020 - Job - 18

18:1  And Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,

18:2  "How long will it be until you make an end of words? Consider, and afterwards we will speak.

18:3  Why are we counted as beasts, or seem stupid in your sight?

18:4  O you who tears yourself in your anger; shall the earth be forsaken for you? And shall the rock be moved out of its 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 lamp shall be put out with him.

18:7  The steps of his strength shall be hobbled, and his own plans shall cast him down.

18:8  For he is thrown into a net by his own feet, and he walks into a trap.

18:9  The trap shall take him by the heel, and the snare shall lay hold on him.

18:10  The noose is laid for him in the ground, and a trap is set for him in the way.

18:11  Terrors shall make him afraid on every side, and shall chase him at every step.

18:12  His trouble shall be ravenous, and calamity shall be ready for his fall.

18:13  It shall devour the members of his body; yea, the firstborn of death consumes his strength.

18:14  His confidence shall be rooted out of his tabernacle, and he shall be brought to the king of terrors.

18:15  What is not his shall dwell in his tabernacle; brimstone shall be scattered on his habitation.

18:16  His roots shall be dried up from beneath, and his branch above shall wither.

18:17  His memory shall perish from the earth, and he shall have no name abroad.

18:18  He shall be driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world.

18:19  He shall have neither son nor kinsman among his people, nor any remaining in his dwellings.

18:20  Those who come after him shall be appalled at his day; as those who went before were seized with horror.

18:21  Surely these are the dwellings of the wicked, and this is the place of him that has not known God."
