Job Chapter 18

18 : 1 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,

18 : 2 How long will it be ere you make an end of words? mark, and afterwards we will speak.

18 : 3 Why are we counted as beasts, and reputed vile in your sight?

18 : 4 He tears himself in his anger: shall the earth be forsaken for you? and shall the rock be removed out of his place?

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

18 : 6 The light shall be dark in his tabernacle, and his candle shall be put out with him.

18 : 7 The steps of his strength shall be straitened, and his own counsel shall cast him down.

18 : 8 For he is cast into a net by his own feet, and he walks on a snare.

18 : 9 The gin shall take him by the heel, and the robber shall prevail against him.

18 : 10 The snare is laid for him in the ground, and a trap for him in the way.

18 : 11 Terrors shall make him afraid on every side, and shall drive him to his feet.

18 : 12 His strength shall be extremely hungry, and destruction shall be ready at his side.

18 : 13 It shall devour the strength of his skin: even the firstborn of death shall devour his strength.

18 : 14 His confidence shall be rooted out of his tabernacle, and it shall bring him to the king of terrors.

18 : 15 It shall dwell in his tabernacle, because it is none of his: brimstone shall be scattered on his habitation.

18 : 16 His roots shall be dried up beneath, and above shall his branch be cut off.

18 : 17 His remembrance shall perish from the earth, and 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 neither have son nor nephew among his people, nor any remaining in his dwellings.

18 : 20 They that come after him shall be astonished at his day, as they that went before were affrighted.

18 : 21 Surely such are the dwellings of the wicked, and this is the place of him that knows not God.
