Job 8:1-9

1. 1 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,

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

3. 3 Doth God pervert judgment? or doth the Almighty pervert justice?

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

5. 5 If thou wouldest seek unto God betimes, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;

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

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

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

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