LITV - Job - 18

18:1  And Bildad the Shuhite answered and said:

18:2  Until when will you set a snare for words? Consider, and afterwards we will speak.

18:3  Why are we counted as animals? Are we stupid in your eyes?

18:4  One tearing himself in his anger, shall the earth be forsaken for your sake? Or shall the rock move from its place?

18:5  Yes, the light of the wicked shall be put out; and the spark of his fire shall not blaze.

18:6  The light shall be dark in his tent; and his lamp shall be put out above him;

18:7  the steps of his strength shall be hampered; and his own counsel shall tumble him.

18:8  For he is sent into a net by his own feet; and he is walking on a snare;

18:9  the trap shall take him by the heel; a noose shall prevail over him;

18:10  the pitfall is hid for him in the ground, and a trap for him on the way.

18:11  Terrors frighten him on every side and shall dash him at his feet.

18:12  His strength shall be hunger-bitten, and calamity shall be ready at his side.

18:13  It devours parts of his skin; the first-born of death eats his parts.

18:14  His hope shall be rooted out of his tent, and you marched to the king of terrors.

18:15  What is not his shall dwell in his tent; brimstone is scattered on his home.

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

18:17  His memory perishes from the earth, and there is no name to him on the face of the street.

18:18  They push him from light to darkness, and they make him flee from the world.

18:19  He shall have no son nor kinsman among his people, nor any remnant in his dwellings.

18:20  Those after him shall be amazed at his day; and those before were seized with horror.

18:21  Surely these are the tents of the perverse, and this the place that has not known God.
