Job 8

1Then answered^H6030 Bildad^H1085 the Shuhite^H7747, and said^H559, 2How^H575 long^H5704 wilt thou speak^H4448 these things? And how long shall the words^H561 of thy mouth^H6310 be like a mighty^H3524 wind^H7307? 3Doth God^H410 pervert^H5791 justice^H4941? Or doth the Almighty^H7706 pervert^H5791 righteousness^H6664? 4If thy children^H1121 have sinned^H2398 against him, And he hath delivered them into the hand^H7971 of^H3027 their transgression^H6588; 5If thou wouldest seek^H7836 diligently^H7836 unto God^H410, And make thy supplication^H2603 to the Almighty^H7706; 6If thou wert pure^H2134 and upright^H3477: Surely now he would awake^H5782 for thee, And make the habitation^H5116 of thy righteousness^H6664 prosperous^H7999. 7And though thy beginning^H7225 was small^H4705, Yet thy latter end^H319 would greatly^H3966 increase^H7685. 8For inquire^H7592, I pray thee, of the former^H7223 age^H1755, And apply^H3559 thyself to that which their fathers^H1 have searched^H2714 out: 9(For we are but of yesterday^H8543, and know^H3045 nothing, Because our days^H3117 upon earth^H776 are a shadow^H6738); 10Shall not they teach^H3384 thee, and tell^H559 thee, And utter^H3318 words^H4405 out of their heart^H3820? 11Can the rush^H1573 grow up^H1342 without mire^H1207? Can^H7685 the flag^H260 grow^H7685 without^H1097 water^H4325? 12Whilst it is yet in its greenness^H3, and not cut down^H6998, It withereth^H3001 before^H6440 any other herb^H2682. 13So are the paths^H734 of all that forget^H7911 God^H410; And the hope^H8615 of the godless^H2611 man shall perish^H6: 14Whose confidence^H3689 shall break in sunder^H6990, And whose trust^H4009 is a spider's^H5908 web^H1004. 15He shall lean^H8172 upon his house^H1004, but it shall not stand^H5975: He shall hold^H2388 fast thereby, but it shall not endure^H6965. 16He is green^H7373 before^H6440 the sun^H8121, And his shoots^H3127 go forth^H3318 over his garden^H1593. 17His roots^H8328 are wrapped about^H5440 the stone -heap^H1530, He beholdeth^H2372 the place^H1004 of stones^H68. 18If he be destroyed^H1104 from his place^H4725, Then it shall deny^H3584 him, saying, I have not seen^H7200 thee. 19Behold, this is the joy^H4885 of his way^H1870; And out of the earth^H6083 shall others^H312 spring^H6779. 20Behold, God^H410 will not cast away^H3988 a perfect^H8535 man, Neither will he uphold^H2388 the evil-doers^H7489. 21He will yet fill^H4390 thy mouth^H6310 with laughter^H7814, And thy lips^H8193 with shouting^H8643. 22They that hate^H8130 thee shall be clothed^H3847 with shame^H1322; And the tent^H168 of the wicked^H7563 shall be no^H369 more.
