Job 18
Revised Version 1895
1Then answeredH559 BildadH1085 the ShuhiteH7747, and saidH559, 2HowH575 longH5704 will ye layH7760 snares for wordsH4405? considerH995, and afterwardsH310 weH5704 will speakH1696. 3Wherefore are we countedH2803 as beastsH929, and are become unclean in your sightH5869? 4Thou that tearest thyself in thine angerH639, shall the earthH776 be forsaken for thee? or shall the rockH6697 be removed outH4725 of its placeH4725? 5Yea, the lightH216 of the wickedH7563 shall be putH1846 outH1846, and the spark of his fireH784 shall notH3808 shineH5050. 6The lightH216 shall be darkH2821 in his tentH168, and his lampH5216 aboveH5921 him shall be putH1846 outH5921. 7The stepsH6806 of his strengthH202 shall be straitened, and his own counselH6098 shall castH7993 him downH7993. 8For he is castH7971 intoH1980 a netH7568 by his own feetH7272, and he walketh uponH5921 the toils. 9A gin shall takeH2388 him by the heelH6119, and a snareH6341 shall layH270 holdH2388 on him. 10A noose is hidH2934 for him in the groundH776, and a trapH4434 for him in the wayH5921. 11TerrorsH1091 shall makeH7272 him afraid on everyH5439 sideH5439, and shall chase him at his heelsH7272. 12His strengthH202 shall be hunger-bitten and calamityH343 shall be readyH3559 for his halting. 13It shall devourH398 the members of his bodyH5785, yea, the firstbornH1060 of deathH4194 shall devourH398 his members. 14He shall be rooted out of his tentH168 wherein he trusteth; and he shall be brought to the kingH4428 of terrorsH1091. 15There shall dwellH7931 in his tentH168 that which is none of his: brimstoneH1614 shall be scatteredH2219 uponH5921 his habitation. 16His rootsH8328 shall be driedH3001 upH3001 beneathH8478, and aboveH4605 shall his branch be cut off. 17His remembranceH2143 shall perishH6 from the earthH776, and he shall have noH3808 nameH8034 in the streetH2351. 18He shall be drivenH1920 from lightH216 intoH413 darknessH2822, and chasedH5074 outH413 of the worldH8398. 19He shall have neitherH3808 son norH3808 son’s son among his peopleH5971, norH3808 anyH369 remaining whereH4033 he sojournedH4033. 20They that comeH314 afterH5921 shall be astonied at his dayH3117, as they that went beforeH5921 were affrighted. 21SurelyH389 suchH2088 are the dwellingsH4908 of the unrighteous, and this is the placeH4725 of him that knoweth notH3808 GodH410.
