ABP - Job - 18

18:1  And undertaking, Baldad the Shuhite says,

18:2  Until when will you cease? Wait! that also [2to these things 1we should speak].

18:3  Why as if four-footed beasts do we keep silent before you?

18:4  [2has dealt with 3you 1Anger]. For what if you should die, will it be uninhabited under heaven? or shall [2be eradicated 1mountains] from their foundations?

18:5  But the light of the impious shall be extinguished, and [3shall not turn out to be 1their 2flame];

18:6  his light will be darkness in his habitation, and the lamp over him shall be extinguished.

18:7  May [2hunt 1the least of men] his possessions; [2may 5trip him 1and 3his 4counsel].

18:8  [2may 4be put 1And 3his foot] in a snare; [2in 3a net 1may he be coiled];

18:9  and may there come upon him snares; [2shall grow strong 3against 4him 1ones thirsting].

18:10  [2is hidden 3in 4the 5earth 1His line], and the thing seizing him is upon the roads.

18:11  [5round about 1May 3destroy 4him 2griefs], [3many things 1and 5around 6his foot 2may 4come].

18:12  [2in 3hunger 5severe 6downfall 1But 8for him 7is prepared 4an extraordinary].

18:13  And may [3be devoured 1the soles of his 2feet], [3shall devour 1and 4his 5beautiful things 2death].

18:14  [2may 4be torn 1And 5from 6his habitation 3healing]; and may he have himself distress by reason of a royal decree.

18:15  It shall encamp in his tent in his night; [2shall be scattered 1his beautiful things] with sulphur.

18:16  [3from beneath 1His roots 2shall be dried], and on top [2shall fall 1his harvest].

18:17  [2his memorial 1May] be destroyed from the earth, and what exists to his name upon the face outer.

18:18  May one thrust him from light unto darkness; and from the inhabitable world they displaced him.

18:19  He will not be well known among his people, nor [2be preserved 3in 4the place 5under 6heaven 1will his house].

18:20  But in his house [2shall live 1others]; [3for 4him 2moaned 1the last], and the first had wonder.

18:21  These are the houses of the unjust, and this is the place of the ones not knowing the lord.
