Then Bildad the Shuhite replied:
Then answered
Bildad the Shuhite ,
and
said,
“
How long until
you
end these
speeches
? Show
some
sense
, and then
we can
talk
.
How long will
it
be
ere
ye
make
an
end of
words
? mark
, and afterwards
we will
speak
.
Why
are we regarded
as cattle
, as
stupid
in your sight?
Wherefore
are we counted
as beasts
, and
reputed
vile
in your sight?
You
who
tear
yourself
in anger —
should
the earth be forsaken on
your
account,
or
the rocks
be moved
from
their
place?
He
teareth
himself
in his
anger :
shall
the earth be forsaken for
thee?
and
shall
the rock
be removed
out
of
his
place?
Indeed
, the lamp
of the wicked is
extinguished;
the flame
of his fire does
not glow
.
Yea
, the light
of the wicked shall
be
put
out,
and
the spark
of his fire shall
not shine
.
The light in his tent
grows
dark
, and the
lamp
beside
him
goes
out.
The light shall
be
dark
in his tabernacle
, and his
candle
shall
be
put
out with
him
.
His vigorous
stride
is
shortened
, and his own schemes
trip
him up
.
The
steps
of
his strength
shall
be
straitened
, and his own counsel
shall
cast
him down
.
For his
own
feet
lead
him
into a net, and he wanders
into
its
mesh
.
For he
is
cast
into a net by
his
own
feet
, and he walketh
upon
a
snare
.
A
trap
seizes
his
heel ;
a
snare
grips
him.
The
gin
shall
take
him
by
the
heel ,
and
the
robber
shall
prevail
against
him.
A
noose
is hidden
in the ground, and a trap lies
in his
path
.
The
snare
is laid
for
him
in the ground, and a trap for
him
in the
way
.
Terrors frighten
him on every side and harass
his every
step
.
Terrors shall
make
him afraid
on every side ,
and shall
drive
him
to
his feet
.
His strength is
depleted
, and calamity
is
ready at his side.
His strength shall
be
hungerbitten
, and destruction
shall
be
ready at his side.
It devours
patches
of his skin ;
the firstborn of death devours
his limbs
.
It shall
devour
the
strength
of his skin :
even
the firstborn of death shall
devour
his strength
.
He
is
torn
from
the
shelter
of his tent
and is
marched
off
to the king of terrors.
His
confidence
shall
be
rooted
out
of his tabernacle,
and it
shall
bring
him
to the king of terrors.
Fire
resides
in his tent;
burning
sulfur
rains
down
on
his dwelling
.
It
shall
dwell
in his tabernacle,
because
it
is
none
of
his :
brimstone
shall
be
scattered
upon
his
habitation
.
The
roots beneath
him
dry
up, and the
branches
above him
wither
away
.
His
roots shall
be
dried
up beneath
, and above shall
his
branch
be
cut
off
.
The
memory
of
him
perishes
from the earth, and he has
no name in the land
.
His
remembrance
shall
perish
from the earth, and he shall
have
no name in the street
.
He is
driven from light into darkness and is
chased from
the inhabited
world.
He shall
be
driven from light into darkness ,
and chased out
of
the world.
He has
no
offspring
or
posterity
among his people, no
survivor
where
he
once
lived
.
He shall
neither
have
son
nor
nephew
among his people, nor
any
remaining
in
his
dwellings
.
Those
in
the
west
are
appalled
at his fate
, while
those
in
the
east
tremble
in
horror
.
They
that
come
after
him
shall
be
astonied
at his day
, as
they
that
went
before
were
affrighted
.
Surely such is
the dwelling
of the wicked and the place of one
who
does
not know
God. ”
Surely such are
the dwellings
of the wicked ,
and this
is
the place of him
that
knoweth
not God.
