18:1 Then answered 6030 8799 Bildad 1085 the Shuhite 7747, and said 559 8799,

18:2 How long 5704 [will it be ere] ye make 7760 8799 an end 7078 of words 4405? mark 995 8799, and afterwards 310 we will speak 1696 8762.

18:3 Wherefore are we counted 2803 8738 as beasts 929, [and] reputed vile 2933 8738 in your sight 5869?

18:4 He teareth 2963 8802 himself 5315 in his anger 639: shall the earth 776 be forsaken 5800 8735 for thee? and shall the rock 6697 be removed 6275 8799 out of his place 4725?(himself: Heb. his soul)

18:5 Yea, the light 216 of the wicked 7563 shall be put out 1846 8799, and the spark 7632 of his fire 784 shall not shine 5050 8799.

18:6 The light 216 shall be dark 2821 8804 in his tabernacle 168, and his candle 5216 shall be put out 1846 8799 with him.(candle: or, lamp)

18:7 The steps 6806 of his strength 202 shall be straitened 3334 8799, and his own counsel 6098 shall cast him down 7993 8686.

18:8 For he is cast 7971 8795 into a net 7568 by his own feet 7272, and he walketh 1980 8691 upon a snare 7639.

18:9 The gin 6341 shall take 270 8799 [him] by the heel 6119, [and] the robber 6782 shall prevail 2388 8686 against him.

18:10 The snare 2256 [is] laid 2934 8803 for him in the ground 776, and a trap 4434 for him in the way 5410.(laid: Heb. hidden)

18:11 Terrors 1091 shall make him afraid 1204 8765 on every side 5439, and shall drive 6327 8689 him to his feet 7272.(drive: Heb. scatter)

18:12 His strength 202 shall be hungerbitten 7457, and destruction 343 [shall be] ready 3559 8737 at his side 6763.

18:13 It shall devour 398 8799 the strength 905 of his skin 5785: [even] the firstborn 1060 of death 4194 shall devour 398 8799 his strength 905.(strength: Heb. bars)

18:14 His confidence 4009 shall be rooted out 5423 8735 of his tabernacle 168, and it shall bring 6805 8686 him to the king 4428 of terrors 1091.

18:15 It shall dwell 7931 8799 in his tabernacle 168, because [it is] none 1097 of his: brimstone 1614 shall be scattered 2219 8792 upon his habitation 5116.

18:16 His roots 8328 shall be dried up 3001 8799 beneath, and above 4605 shall his branch 7105 be cut off 5243 8799.

18:17 His remembrance 2143 shall perish 6 8804 from the earth 776, and he shall have no name 8034 in the street 6440 2351.

18:18 He shall be driven 1920 8799 from light 216 into darkness 2822, and chased 5074 8686 out of the world 8398.(He…: Heb. They shall drive him)

18:19 He shall neither have son 5209 nor nephew 5220 among his people 5971, nor any remaining 8300 in his dwellings 4033.

18:20 They that come after 314 [him] shall be astonied 8074 8738 at his day 3117, as they that went before 6931 were affrighted 270 8804 8178.(went…: or, lived with him)(were…: Heb. laid hold on horror)

18:21 Surely such [are] the dwellings 4908 of the wicked 5767, and this [is] the place 4725 [of him that] knoweth 3045 8804 not God 410.
