Job 18

 ¹Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,

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

 ³Wherefore are we counted as beasts, and reputed vile in your sight?

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

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

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

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

 ⁸For he is cast into a net by his own feet, and he walketh upon a snare.

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

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

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

 ¹²His strength shall be hungerbitten, and destruction shall be ready at his side.

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

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

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

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

 ¹⁷His remembrance shall perish from the earth, and he shall have no name in the street.

 ¹⁸He shall be driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world.

 ¹⁹He shall neither have son nor nephew among his people, nor any remaining in his dwellings.

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

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