1. Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
2. How long will ye hunt for words? Consider, and afterwards we will speak.
3. Wherefore are we counted as beasts, And are become unclean in your sight?
4. Thou that tearest thyself in thine anger, Shall the earth be forsaken for thee? Or shall the rock be removed out of its place?
5. Yea, the light of the wicked shall be put out, And the spark of his fire shall not shine.
6. The light shall be dark in his tent, And his lamp above him shall be put out.
7. The steps of his strength shall be straitened, And his own counsel shall cast him down.
8. For he is cast into a net by his own feet, And he walketh upon the toils.
