World English Bible Classic
[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,
will the earth be forsaken for you?
Or will the rock be removed out of its place? [5] “Yes, the light of the wicked will be put out.
The spark of his fire won’t shine.
[6] The light will be dark in his tent.
His lamp above him will be put out.
[7] The steps of his strength will be shortened.
His own counsel will 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 will make him afraid on every side,
and will chase him at his heels.
[12] His strength will be famished.
Calamity will be ready at his side.
[13] The members of his body will be devoured.
The firstborn of death will devour his members.
[14] He will be rooted out of the security of his tent.
He will be brought to the king of terrors.
[15] There will dwell in his tent that which is none of his.
Sulfur will be scattered on his habitation.
[16] His roots will be dried up beneath.
His branch will be cut off above.
[17] His memory will perish from the earth.
He will have no name in the street.
[18] He will be driven from light into darkness,
and chased out of the world.
[19] He will have neither son nor grandson among his people,
nor any remaining where he lived.
[20] Those who come after will 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.”
King James Version

Bildad’s Speech

[1] Then answered H6030 Bildad H1085 the Shuhite, H7747 and said, H559
[2] How long H5704 will it be ere ye make H7760 an end H7078 of words? H4405
Mark, H995 and afterwards H310 we will speak. H1696
[3] Wherefore are we counted H2803 as beasts, H929
And reputed vile H2933 in your sight? H5869
[4] He teareth H2963 himself H5315§ in his anger: H639
Shall the earth H776 be forsaken H5800 for thee?
And shall the rock H6697 be removed H6275 out of his place? H4725
[5] Yea, the light H216 of the wicked H7563 shall be put out, H1846
And the spark H7632 of his fire H784 shall H5050 not H3808 shine. H5050
[6] The light H216 shall be dark H2821 in his tabernacle, H168
And his candle H5216§ shall be put out H1846 with him.
[7] The steps H6806 of his strength H202 shall be straitened, H3334
And his own counsel H6098 shall cast him down. H7993
[8] For H3588 he is cast H7971 into a net H7568 by his own feet, H7272
And he walketh H1980 upon H5921 a snare. H7639
[9] The gin H6341 shall take H270 him by the heel, H6119
And the robber H6782 shall prevail H2388 against him.
[10] The snare H2256 is laid H2934§ for him in the ground, H776
And a trap H4434 for him in the way. H5410
[11] Terrors H1091 shall make him afraid H1204 on every side, H5439
And shall drive H6327 him§ to his feet. H7272
[12] His strength H202 shall be hungerbitten, H7457
And destruction H343 shall be ready H3559 at his side. H6763
[13] It shall devour H398 the strength H905§ of his skin: H5785
Even the firstborn H1060 of death H4194 shall devour H398 his strength. H905
[14] His confidence H4009 shall be rooted out H5423 of his tabernacle, H168
And it shall bring H6805 him to the king H4428 of terrors. H1091
[15] It shall dwell H7931 in his tabernacle, H168 because it is none H1097 of his:
Brimstone H1614 shall be scattered H2219 upon H5921 his habitation. H5116
[16] His roots H8328 shall be dried up H3001 beneath,
And above H4605 shall his branch H7105 be cut off. H5243
[17] His remembrance H2143 shall perish H6 from H4480 the earth, H776
And he shall have no name H8034 in the street. H6440 H2351
[18] He shall be driven H1920§ from light H216 into darkness, H2822
And chased H5074 out of the world. H8398
[19] He shall neither have son H5209 nor nephew H5220 among his people, H5971
Nor any remaining H8300 in his dwellings. H4033
[20] They that come after H314 him shall be astonied H8074 at his day, H3117
As they that went before H6931§ were affrighted. H270 H8178
[21] Surely such are the dwellings H4908 of the wicked, H5767
And this is the place H4725 of him that knoweth H3045 not H3808 God. H410

[1] Ὑπολαβὼν G5274 δὲ G1161 Βαλδαδ ὁ G3588 Σαυχίτης λέγει G3004 [2] Μέχρι G3360 τίνος G5101 οὐ G3756 παύσῃ; G3973 Ἐπίσχες, G1907 ἵνα G2443 καὶ G2532 αὐτοὶ G846 λαλήσωμεν. G2980 [3] Διὰ G1223 τί G5101 ὥσπερ G5618 τετράποδα G5074 σεσιωπήκαμεν G4623 ἐναντίον G1726 σου; G4675 [4] Κέχρηταί G5530 σοι G4671 ὀργή. G3709 Τί G5101 γάρ; G1063 Ἐὰν G1437 σὺ G4771 ἀποθάνῃς, G599 ἀοίκητος ἡ G3588 ὑπ’ G5259 οὐρανόν; G3772 Ἢ G2228 καταστραφήσεται G2690 ὄρη G3735 ἐκ G1537 θεμελίων; G2310 [5] Καὶ G2532 φῶς G5457 ἀσεβῶν G765 σβεσθήσεται, G4570 καὶ G2532 οὐκ G3756 ἀποβήσεται G576 αὐτῶν G846 ἡ G3588 φλόξ· G5395 [6] τὸ G3588 φῶς G5457 αὐτοῦ G846 σκότος G4655 ἐν G1722 διαίτῃ, ὁ G3588 δὲ G1161 λύχνος G3088 ἐπ’ G1909 αὐτῷ G846 σβεσθήσεται. G4570 [7] Θηρεύσαισαν G2340 ἐλάχιστοι G1646 τὰ G3588 ὑπάρχοντα G5225 αὐτοῦ, G846 σφάλαι δὲ G1161 αὐτοῦ G846 ἡ G3588 βουλή. G1012 [8] Ἐμβέβληται G1685 δὲ G1161 ὁ G3588 ποὺς G4228 αὐτοῦ G846 ἐν G1722 παγίδι· G3803 ἐν G1722 δικτύῳ G1350 ἑλιχθείη. [9] Ἔλθοισαν G2064 δὲ G1161 ἐπ’ G1909 αὐτὸν G846 παγίδες· G3803 κατισχύσει G2729 ἐπ’ G1909 αὐτὸν G846 διψῶντας. G1372 [10] Κέκρυπται G2928 ἐν G1722 τῇ G3588 γῇ G1093 σχοινίον G4979 αὐτοῦ G846 καὶ G2532 ἡ G3588 σύλλημψις αὐτοῦ G846 ἐπὶ G1909 τρίβων. G5147 [11] Κύκλῳ G2945 ὀλέσαισαν αὐτὸν G846 ὀδύναι, G3601 πολλοὶ G4183 δὲ G1161 περὶ G4012 πόδας G4228 αὐτοῦ G846 ἔλθοισαν G2064 ἐν G1722 λιμῷ G3042 στενῷ. G4728 [12] Πτῶμα G4430 δὲ G1161 αὐτῷ G846 ἡτοίμασται G2090 ἐξαίσιον. [13] Βρωθείησαν G977 αὐτοῦ G846 κλῶνες ποδῶν, G4228 κατέδεται G2719 δὲ G1161 τὰ G3588 ὡραῖα G5611 αὐτοῦ G846 θάνατος. G2288 [14] Ἐκραγείη δὲ G1161 ἐκ G1537 διαίτης αὐτοῦ G846 ἴασις, G2392 σχοίη G2192 δὲ G1161 αὐτὸν G846 ἀνάγκη G318 αἰτίᾳ G156 βασιλικῇ. G937 [15] Κατασκηνώσει G2681 ἐν G1722 τῇ G3588 σκηνῇ G4633 αὐτοῦ G846 ἐν G1722 νυκτὶ G3571 αὐτοῦ, G846 κατασπαρήσονται τὰ G3588 εὐπρεπῆ αὐτοῦ G846 θείῳ. G2303 [16] Ὑποκάτωθεν αἱ G3588 ῥίζαι G4491 αὐτοῦ G846 ξηρανθήσονται, G3583 καὶ G2532 ἐπάνωθεν ἐπιπεσεῖται G1968 θερισμὸς G2326 αὐτοῦ. G846 [17] Τὸ G3588 μνημόσυνον G3422 αὐτοῦ G846 ἀπόλοιτο G622 ἐκ G1537 γῆς, G1093 καὶ G2532 ὑπάρχει G5225 ὄνομα G3686 αὐτῷ G846 ἐπὶ G1909 πρόσωπον G4383 ἐξωτέρω. G1857 [18] Ἀπώσειεν G683 αὐτὸν G846 ἐκ G1537 φωτὸς G5457 εἰς G1519 σκότος. G4655 [19] Οὐκ G3756 ἔσται G2071 ἐπίγνωστος ἐν G1722 λαῷ G2992 αὐτοῦ, G846 οὐδὲ G3761 σεσῳσμένος G4982 ἐν G1722 τῇ G3588 ὑπ’ G5259 οὐρανὸν G3772 ὁ G3588 οἶκος G3624 αὐτοῦ, G846 ἀλλ’ G235 ἐν G1722 τοῖς G3588 αὐτοῦ G846 ζήσονται G2198 ἕτεροι. G2087 [20] Ἐπ’ G1909 αὐτῷ G846 ἐστέναξαν G4727 ἔσχατοι, G2078 πρώτους G4413 δὲ G1161 ἔσχεν G2192 θαῦμα. G2295 [21] Οὗτοί G3778 εἰσιν G1526 οἶκοι G3624 ἀδίκων, G94 οὗτος G3778 δὲ G1161 ὁ G3588 τόπος G5117 τῶν G3588 μὴ G3361 εἰδότων τὸν G3588 κύριον. G2962
