Job 18 - UPDV Updated Bible Version

^18:1 Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,
^18:2 How long will you⁺ hunt for words? Consider, and afterward we will speak.
^18:3 Why are we counted as beasts, [And] have we become unclean in your⁺ sight?
^18:4 You who tear your soul in your anger, Will the earth be forsaken for you? Or will the rock be removed out of its place?
^18:5 Yes, the light of the wicked will be put out, And the spark of his fire will not shine.
^18:6 The light will be dark in his tent, And his lamp above him will be put out.
^18:7 The steps of his strength will be straitened, And his own counsel will cast him down.
^18:8 For he is cast into a net by his own feet, And he walks on the toils.
^18:9 A trap will take [him] by the heel, [And] a snare will lay hold on him.
^18:10 A noose is hid for him in the ground, And a trap for him in the way.
^18:11 Terrors will make him afraid on every side, And will chase him at his heels.
^18:12 His strength will be hunger-bitten, And calamity will be ready at his side.
^18:13 The members of his body will be devoured, [Yes,] the firstborn of death will devour his members.
^18:14 He will be rooted out of his tent in which he trusts; And he will be brought to the king of terrors.
^18:15 There will stay in his tent that which is none of his: Brimstone will be scattered on his habitation.
^18:16 His roots will be dried up beneath, And above will his branch be cut off.
^18:17 His remembrance will perish from the earth, And he will have no name in the street.
^18:18 He will be driven from light into darkness, And chased out of the world.
^18:19 He will have neither son nor son's son among his people, Nor any remaining where he sojourned.
^18:20 Those who come after will be astonished at his day, As those who went before were frightened.
^18:21 Surely such are the dwellings of the unrighteous, And this is the place of him who doesn't know God.
