Job 18

LITV^{(i) 1} And Bildad the Shuhite answered and said: ² Until when will you set a snare for words? Consider, and afterwards we will speak. ³ Why are we counted as animals? Are we stupid in your eyes? ⁴ One tearing himself in his anger, shall the earth be forsaken for your sake? Or shall the rock move from its place? ⁵ Yes, the light of the wicked shall be put out; and the spark of his fire shall not blaze. ⁶ The light shall be dark in his tent; and his lamp shall be put out above him; ⁷ the steps of his strength shall be hampered; and his own counsel shall tumble him. ⁸ For he is sent into a net by his own feet; and he is walking on a snare; ⁹ the trap shall take him by the heel; a noose shall prevail over him; ¹⁰ the pitfall is hid for him in the ground, and a trap for him on the way. ¹¹ Terrors frighten him on every side and shall dash him at his feet. ¹² His strength shall be hunger-bitten, and calamity shall be ready at his side. ¹³ It devours parts of his skin; the first-born of death eats his parts. ¹⁴ His hope shall be rooted out of his tent, and you marched to the king of terrors. ¹⁵ What is not his shall dwell in his tent; brimstone is scattered on his home. ¹⁶ His roots are dried up beneath, and his branch shall wither above. ¹⁷ His memory perishes from the earth, and there is no name to him on the face of the street. ¹⁸ They push him from light to darkness, and they make him flee from the world. ¹⁹ He shall have no son nor kinsman among his people, nor any remnant in his dwellings. ²⁰ Those after him shall be amazed at his day; and those before were seized with horror. ²¹ Surely these are the tents of the perverse, and this the place that has not known God.
