Job 8:1-7
11Job's friend Bildad, who came from Shuah, decided to speak. He said this to Job:
2‘You should not continue to talk like this. Your words are like a wind that blows strongly.
3Surely you know that God is fair. The Almighty God never changes right things into wrong things.
4Your children did things that were wrong. That is why God punished them.
5But you should pray to Almighty God. You should ask him to help you.
6If you are honest and live in the right way, God will do something to help you. He will give you a family again that will bring you honour.
7You will be successful in the future, with more riches than you had before.
Notes
- 1. Job 8:1 Bildad tells Job that God is powerful and is always fair. So if Job lives the right way, his life will soon be better. But that does not help Job. He still does not understand why bad things have happened to him. ↩
