1 - Then Bildad the Shuhite answered,

2 - "How long will you hunt for words?Consider, and afterwards we will speak.

3 - Why are we counted as animals,which have become unclean in your sight?

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

5 - "Yes, the light of the wicked shall be put out,The spark of his fire shall not shine.

6 - The light shall be dark in his tent.His lamp above him shall be put out.

7 - The steps of his strength shall be shortened.His own counsel shall cast him down.

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

9 - A snare will take him by the heel.A trap will catch him.

10 - A noose is hidden for him in the ground,a trap for him on the path.

11 - Terrors shall make him afraid on every side,and shall chase him at his heels.

12 - His strength shall be famished.Calamity shall be ready at his side.

13 - The members of his body shall be devoured.The firstborn of death shall devour his members.

14 - He shall be rooted out of the security of his tent.He shall be brought to the king of terrors.

15 - There shall dwell in his tent that which is none of his.Sulfur shall be scattered on his habitation.

16 - His roots shall be dried up beneath.Above shall his branch be cut off.

17 - His memory shall perish from the earth.He shall have no name in the street.

18 - He shall be driven from light into darkness,and chased out of the world.

19 - He shall have neither son nor grandson among his people,nor any remaining where he lived.

20 - Those who come after shall be astonished at his day,as those who went before were frightened.

21 - Surely such are the dwellings of the unrighteous.This is the place of him who doesn't know God."
