KJV

Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,

KJV

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

KJV

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

KJV

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

KJV

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

KJV

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

KJV

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

KJV

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

KJV

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

KJV

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

KJV

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

KJV

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

KJV

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

KJV

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

KJV

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

KJV

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

KJV

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

KJV

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

KJV

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

KJV

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

KJV

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