1. Then Bildad, the Shuhite, answered and said,
2. How long wilt thou speak such things and how long shall the words of thy mouth be like a strong wind?
3. Shall God pervert that which is right or shall the Almighty pervert justice?
4. Because thy sons sinned against him, he cast them away in the place of their rebellion;
5. if thou would seek God early and make thy supplication to the Almighty,
6. if thou wert pure and upright, surely now he would awake upon thee and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.
