Job 18

Authorized King James Version (1769) with AI Commentary

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