Job 18:1-13
-
1 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
-
2 How long will it be ere ye make an end of words? mark, and afterwards we will speak.
-
3 Wherefore are we counted as beasts, and reputed vile in your sight?
-
4 He teareth himself in his anger: shall the earth be forsaken for thee? and shall the rock be removed out of his place?
-
5 Yea, the light of the wicked shall be put out, and the spark of his fire shall not shine.
-
6 The light shall be dark in his tabernacle, and his candle shall be put out with him.
-
7 The steps of his strength shall be straitened, and his own counsel shall cast him down.
-
8 For he is cast into a net by his own feet, and he walketh upon a snare.
-
9 The gin shall take him by the heel, and the robber shall prevail against him.
-
10 The snare is laid for him in the ground, and a trap for him in the way.
-
11 Terrors shall make him afraid on every side, and shall drive him to his feet.
-
12 His strength shall be hungerbitten, and destruction shall be ready at his side.
-
13 It shall devour the strength of his skin: even the firstborn of death shall devour his strength.
