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