Job 18

1 And he answered Bildad the Shuhite and he said.

Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said:

2 Until when? - will you make! ends of words you will consider and after we will speak.

How long will ye lay snares for words? Consider, and afterwards we will speak.

3 Why? are we regarded like cattle are we considered stupid? in eyes your.

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

4 O [one who] tears self his in anger his ¿ for sake your may it be abandoned [the] earth so it may move? a rock from place its.

Thou that tearest thyself in thine anger, shall the earth be forsaken for thee? Or shall the rock be removed out of its place?

5 Also [the] light of wicked [people] it is extinguished and not it shines [the] flame of fire his.

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

6 [the] light It grows dark in tent his and lamp his above him it is extinguished.

The light shall be dark in his tent, and his lamp over him shall be put out.

7 They are restricted [the] steps of vigor his and it throws down him own plan[s] his.

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

8 For he is caught in a net by feet his and on a network he walks about.

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

9 It takes hold on a heel a trap it takes hold on him a snare.

A gin shall take him by the heel, and a snare shall lay hold on him.

10 [is] hidden On the ground rope his and trap his on [the] path.

A noose is hid for him in the ground, and a trap for him in the way.

11 All around they terrify him sudden terror and they scatter him to feet his.

Terrors shall overwhelm him on every side, and shall entrap him at his feet.

12 It is hungry trouble his and disaster [is] prepared for stumbling his.

His trouble shall be ravenous, and calamity shall be ready for his fall.

13 It consumes [the] parts of skin his it consumes parts his [the] firstborn of death.

It shall devour the members of his body, yea, the first-born of death shall devour his members.

14 He is torn away from tent his trust his and it makes march him to [the] king of sudden terror.

That wherein he trusteth shall be plucked out of his tent; and he shall be brought to the king of terrors.

15 It dwells in tent his (because not *Lb) [belonging] to him it is scattered over estate his sulfur.

There shall dwell in his tent that which is none of his; brimstone shall be scattered upon his habitation.

16 Beneath roots his they are dried up and above it withers branch[es] his.

His roots shall dry up beneath, and above shall his branch wither.

17 Memory his it perishes from [the] earth and not a name [belongs] to him on [the] face of [the] street.

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

18 People drive him from light into darkness and from [the] world they chase away him.

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

19 Not posterity [belongs] to him and not progeny [is] among people his and there not [is] a survivor in sojourning-places his.

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

20 On day his they are appalled [those] behind and [those] before they take hold of a shudder.

They that come after shall be astonished at his day, as they that went before are affrighted.

21 Surely these [are] [the] dwelling places of an evil-doer and this [is the] place of [one who] not he knows God.

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