Job 8:1 Then answered
Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
Job 8:2 How long wilt thou speak these things? and how long shall the
words of thy mouth be like a strong wind?
Job 8:3 Doth God pervert judgment? or doth the Almighty pervert justice?
Job 8:4 If thy children have sinned against him, and he have cast them
away for their transgression;
Job 8:5 If thou wouldest seek unto God betimes, and make thy supplication
to the Almighty;
Job 8:6 If thou wert pure and upright; surely now he would awake for thee,
and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.
Job 8:7 Though thy be ginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly
increase.
Job 8:8 For inquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself
to the search of their fathers:
Job 8:9 (For we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because our days
upon earth are a shadow:)
Job 8:10 Shall not they teach thee, and tell thee, and utter words out of
their heart?
Job 8:11 Can the rush grow up without mire? can the flag grow without
water?
Job 8:12 Whilst it is yet in his greenness, and not cut down, it withereth
before any other herb.
Job 8:13 So are the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite's hope
shall perish:
Job 8:14 Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spider's
web.
Job 8:15 He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall
hold it fast, but it shall not endure.
Job 8:16 He is green before the sun, and his branch shooteth forth in his
garden.
Job 8:17 His roots are wrapped about the heap, and seeth the place of
stones.
Job 8:18 If he destroy him from his place, then it shall deny him, saying,
I have not seen thee.
Job 8:19 Behold, this is the joy of his way, and out of the earth shall
others grow.
Job 8:20 Behold, God will not cast away a perfect man, neither will he
help the evildoers:
Job 8:21 Till he fill thy mouth with laughing, and thy lips with
rejoicing.
Job 8:22 They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame; and the dwelling
place of the wicked shall come to nought. |
