New Testament

Job 18:2-8 English Standard Version (ESV)

2. “How long will you hunt for words?Consider, and then we will speak.

3. Why are we counted as cattle?Why are we stupid in your sight?

4. You who tear yourself in your anger,shall the earth be forsaken for you,or the rock be removed out of its place?

5. “Indeed, the light of the wicked is put out,and the flame of his fire does not shine.

6. The light is dark in his tent,and his lamp above him is put out.

7. His strong steps are shortened,and his own schemes throw him down.

8. For he is cast into a net by his own feet,and he walks on its mesh.
