Job 18

Job Chapter 18 KJV

1Bildad reproveth Job of presumption and impatience: 5he enlargeth on the inevitable calamities of the wicked.
1 Then answered 1Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
2 How long will it be ere ye 1make an end of words? mark, and afterwards we will speak.
3 Wherefore are we counted 1as beasts, and reputed vile in your sight?
4 He 1teareth ahimself in his anger: shall the earth be forsaken for thee? and shall the rock be removed out of his place?
5 Yea, 1the light of the wicked shall be put out, and the spark of his fire shall not shine.
6 The 1light shall be dark in his tabernacle, and his acandle shall be put out with him.
7 The 1steps of his strength shall be straitened, and his 2own counsel shall cast him down.
8 For 1he is cast into a net by his own feet, and he walketh upon a snare.
9 The 1gin shall take him by the heel, and 2the robber shall prevail against him.
10 The snare is alaid for him in the ground, and a trap for him in the way.
11 1Terrors shall make him afraid on every side, and shall adrive him to his feet.
12 His strength shall be 1hungerbitten, and destruction shall be ready at his side.
13 It shall devour the astrength of his skin: even the firstborn of death shall devour his strength.
14 1His confidence shall be rooted out of his tabernacle, and it shall bring him to 2the king of terrors.
15 1It shall dwell in his tabernacle, because it is none of his: 2brimstone shall be scattered upon his habitation.
16 His 1roots shall be dried up beneath, and above shall his branch be cut off.
17 1His remembrance shall perish from the earth, and he shall have no name in the street.
18 1aHe shall be driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world.
19 1He shall neither have son nor nephew among his people, nor any remaining in his dwellings.
20 They that come after him shall be 1astonied at his 2day, as they that awent before bwere affrighted.
21 Surely 1such are the dwellings of the wicked, and this is the place of him that 2knoweth not God.
