Context
Bildad’s Second Speech
18:1 Then Bildad the Shuhite answered :
18:2 “How long until you make an end of words ? You must consider , and then we can talk .
18:3 Why should we be regarded as beasts , and considered stupid in your sight ?
18:4 You who tear yourself to pieces in your anger , will the earth be abandoned for your sake ? Or will a rock be moved from its place ?
18:5 “Yes , the lamp of the wicked is extinguished ; his flame of fire does not shine .
18:6 The light in his tent grows dark ; his lamp above him is extinguished .
18:7 His vigorous steps are restricted , and his own counsel throws him down .
18:8 For he has been thrown into a net by his feet and he wanders into a mesh .
18:9 A trap seizes him by the heel ; a snare grips him.
18:10 A rope is hidden for him on the ground and a trap for him lies on the path .
18:11 Terrors frighten him on all sides and dog his every step .
18:12 Calamity is hungry for him , and misfortune is ready at his side .
18:13 It eats away parts of his skin ; the most terrible death devours his limbs .
18:14 He is dragged from the security of his tent , and marched off to the king of terrors .
18:15 Fire resides in his tent ; over his residence burning sulfur is scattered .
18:16 Below his roots dry up, and his branches wither above .
18:17 His memory perishes from the earth , he has no name in the land .
18:18 He is driven from light into darkness and is banished from the world .
18:19 He has neither children nor descendants among his people , no survivor in those places he once stayed .
18:20 People of the west are appalled at his fate ; people of the east are seized with horror , saying,
18:21 ‘Surely such is the residence of an evil man ; and this is the place of one who has not known God .’”
