RNKJV - Job - 8

8:1  Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,

8:2  How long wilt thou speak these things? and how long shall the words of thy mouth be like a strong wind?

8:3  Doth El pervert judgment? or doth the Almighty pervert justice?

8:4  If thy children have sinned against him, and he have cast them away for their transgression;

8:5  If thou wouldest seek unto El betimes, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;

8:6  If thou wert pure and upright; surely now he would awake for thee, and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.

8:7  Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.

8:8  For inquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers:

8:9  (For we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because our days upon earth are a shadow:)

8:10  Shall not they teach thee, and tell thee, and utter words out of their heart?

8:11  Can the rush grow up without mire? can the flag grow without water?

8:12  Whilst it is yet in his greenness, and not cut down, it withereth before any other herb.

8:13  So are the paths of all that forget El; and the hypocrite's hope shall perish:

8:14  Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spider's web.

8:15  He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.

8:16  He is green before the sun, and his branch shooteth forth in his garden.

8:17  His roots are wrapped about the heap, and seeth the place of stones.

8:18  If he destroy him from his place, then it shall deny him, saying, I have not seen thee.

8:19  Behold, this is the joy of his way, and out of the earth shall others grow.

8:20  Behold, El will not cast away a perfect man, neither will he help the evil doers:

8:21  Till he fill thy mouth with laughing, and thy lips with rejoicing.

8:22  They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame; and the dwelling place of the wicked shall come to nought.
