Chapter 18 Then answered Bildad, the Shuhite, and said,
And his candles shall be put out with him.
The steps of his strength shall be straightened, and his own counsel shall
cast him down.
For he is cast into a net by his own feet, and he walketh upon a snare.
The djinn shall take him by the heel, and the robbers shall prevail against him.
The snare is laid for him in the ground, and a trap for him in the way.
Terrors shall make him afraid on every side, and shall drive him to his feet.
His strength shall be hunger-bitten, and destruction shall be ready at his
side.
It shall devour the strength of his skin.
Even the firstborn of death shall devour his strength.
His confidence shall be rooted out of his tabernacle, and it shall bring him to the
king of terrors.
It shall dwell in his tabernacle, because it is none of his.
Brimstone shall be scattered upon his habitation.
His roots shall be dried up beneath, and above shall his branch be cut off.
His remembrance shall perish from the earth, and he shall have no name in the
street.
He shall be driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world.
He shall neither have son nor nephew among his people, nor any remaining in his
dwellings.
They that come after him shall be astonished at his day, as they that went
before were affrighted.
Surely such are the dwellings of the wicked, and this is the place of him that
knoweth not God.
