Job 18

1  Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,

2  How long will ye hunt for words? Consider, and afterwards we will speak.

3  Wherefore are we counted as beasts, `And' are become unclean in your sight?

4  Thou that tearest thyself in thine anger, Shall the earth be forsaken for thee? Or shall the rock be removed out of its 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 tent, And his lamp above him shall be put out.

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 the toils.

9  A gin shall take `him' by the heel, `And' a snare shall lay hold on him.

10  A noose is hid for him in the ground, And a trap for him in the way.
