Job 8

[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] [31] [32] [33] [34] [35] [36] [37] [38] [39] [40] [41] [42]

8:1 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,

8:2 How long wilt thou speak these things? and how long shall the words of thy mouth be like a strong wind?

8:3 Doth God pervert judgment? or doth the Almighty pervert justice?

8:4 If thy children have sinned against him, and he have cast them away for their transgression;

8:5 If thou wouldest seek unto God betimes, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;

8:6 If thou wert pure and upright; surely now he would awake for thee, and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.

8:7 Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.

8:8 For enquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers:

8:9 (For we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because our days upon earth are a shadow:)

8:10 Shall not they teach thee, and tell thee, and utter words out of their heart?

8:11 Can the rush grow up without mire? can the flag grow without water?

8:12 Whilst it is yet in his greenness, and not cut down, it withereth before any other herb.

8:13 So are the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite's hope shall perish:

8:14 Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spider's web.

8:15 He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.

8:16 He is green before the sun, and his branch shooteth forth in his garden.

8:17 His roots are wrapped about the heap, and seeth the place of stones.

8:18 If he destroy him from his place, then it shall deny him, saying, I have not seen thee.

8:19 Behold, this is the joy of his way, and out of the earth shall others grow.

8:20 Behold, God will not cast away a perfect man, neither will he help the evil doers:

8:21 Till he fill thy mouth with laughing, and thy lips with rejoicing.

8:22 They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame; and the dwelling place of the wicked shall come to nought.
