NHEB - Job - 18

18:1  Then Bildad the Shuhite answered,

18:2  "How long will you hunt for words? Consider, and afterwards we will speak.

18:3  Why are we counted as animals, which have become unclean in your sight?

18:4  You who tear yourself in your anger, shall the earth be forsaken for you? Or shall the rock be removed out of its place?

18:5  "Yes, the light of the wicked shall be put out, The spark of his fire shall not shine.

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

18:7  The steps of his strength shall be shortened. His own counsel shall cast him down.

18:8  For he is cast into a net by his own feet, and he wanders into its mesh.

18:9  A snare will take him by the heel. A trap will catch him.

18:10  A noose is hidden for him in the ground, a trap for him in the way.

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

18:12  His strength shall be famished. Calamity shall be ready at his side.

18:13  The members of his body shall be devoured. The firstborn of death shall devour his members.

18:14  He shall be rooted out of his tent where he trusts. He shall be brought to the king of terrors.

18:15  There shall dwell in his tent that which is none of his. Sulfur shall be scattered on his habitation.

18:16  His roots shall be dried up beneath. Above shall his branch be cut off.

18:17  His memory shall perish from the earth. 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 have neither son nor grandson among his people, nor any remaining where he sojourned.

18:20  Those who come after shall be astonished at his day, as those who went before were frightened.

18:21  Surely such are the dwellings of the unrighteous. This is the place of him who doesn't know God."
