18:017:011 My days are past, my purposes are broken
off, even the
thoughts
of my heart.
18:017:012 They change the night into day: the
light is short because of
darkness.
18:017:013 If I wait, the grave is mine house:
I have made my bed in the
darkness.
18:017:014 I have said to corruption, Thou art my
father: to the worm,
Thou
art my mother, and my sister.
18:017:015 And where is now my hope? as for my hope, who shall see it?
18:017:016 They shall go down to the bars of the pit,
when our rest
together
is in the dust.
18:018:001 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
18:018:002 How long will it be ere ye make an end
of words? mark, and
afterwards
we will speak.
18:018:003 Wherefore are we counted as beasts, and
reputed vile in your
sight?
18:018:004 He teareth himself in his anger: shall
the earth be forsaken
for
thee? and shall the rock be removed out of his place?
18:018:005 Yea, the light of the wicked shall be put
out, and the spark
of
his fire shall not shine.
18:018:006 The light shall be dark in his tabernacle,
and his candle
shall
be put out with him.
18:018:007 The steps of his strength shall be straitened,
and his own
counsel
shall cast him down.
18:018:008 For he is cast into a net by his own feet,
and he walketh upon
a
snare.
18:018:009 The gin shall take him by the heel, and
the robber shall
prevail
against him.
18:018:010 The snare is laid for him in the ground,
and a trap for him in
the
way.
18:018:011 Terrors shall make him afraid on every
side, and shall drive
him
to his feet.
18:018:012 His strength shall be hungerbitten, and
destruction shall be
ready
at his side.
18:018:013 It shall devour the strength of his skin:
even the firstborn
of
death shall devour his strength.
18:018:014 His confidence shall be rooted out of his
tabernacle, and it
shall
bring him to the king of terrors.
18:018:015 It shall dwell in his tabernacle, because
it is none of his:
brimstone
shall be scattered upon his habitation.
18:018:016 His roots shall be dried up beneath, and
above shall his
branch
be cut off.
18:018:017 His remembrance shall perish from the earth,
and he shall have
no
name in the street.
18:018:018 He shall be driven from light into darkness,
and chased out of
the
world.
18:018:019 He shall neither have son nor nephew among
his people, nor any
remaining
in his dwellings.
18:018:020 They that come after him shall be astonied
at his day, as they
that
went before were affrighted.
