Bildad Speaks

8Then Bildad the Shuhite replied:H6030H1085H7747H559
2How long will you go on saying these things? Your words are a blast of wind.H575H5704H4448H561H6310H3524H7307
3Does God pervert justice? Does the Almighty pervert what is right?H410H5791H4941H7706H5791H6664
4Since your children sinned against Him, He gave them over to their rebellion.H1121H2398H7971H3027H6588
5But if you earnestly seek God and ask the Almighty for mercy,H7836H410H7836H2603H7706
6if you are pure and upright, then He will move even now on your behalf and restore the home where your righteousness dwells.H2134H3477H5782H5116H6664H7999
7Then, even if your beginnings were modest, your final days will be full of prosperity.H7225H4705H319H3966H7685
8For ask the previous generation, and pay attention to what their fathers discovered,H7592H7223H7223H1755H3559H2714H1
9since we were [born only] yesterday and know nothing. Our days on earth are but a shadow.H8543H3045H3117H776H6738
10Will they not teach you and tell you and speak from their understanding?H3384H559H3318H4405H3820
11Does papyrus grow where there is no marsh? Do reeds flourish without water?H1573H1342H1207H7685H260H7685H1097H4325
12While still uncut shoots, they would dry up quicker than any [other] plant.H3H6998H3001H6440H2682
13Such is the destiny of all who forget God; the hope of the godless will perish.H734H7911H410H2611H8615H6
14His source of confidence is fragile; what he trusts in is a spider's web.H3689H6990H4009H5908H1004
15He leans on his web, but it doesn't stand firm. He grabs it, but it does not hold up.H8172H1004H5975H2388H6965
16He is an amply watered plant in the sunshine; his shoots spread out over his garden.H7373H6440H8121H3127H3318H1593
17His roots are intertwined around a pile of rocks. He looks for a home among the stones.H8328H5440H1530H2372H1004H68
18If he is uprooted from his place, it will deny [knowing] him, saying, "I never saw you."H1104H4725H3584H7200
19Surely this is the joy of his way of life; yet others will sprout from the dust.H4885H1870H6083H312H6779
20Look, God does not reject a person of integrity, and He will not support evildoers.H410H3988H8535H2388H3027H7489
21He will yet fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with a shout of joy.H4390H6310H7814H8193H8643
22Your enemies will be clothed with shame; the tent of the wicked will exist no longer.H8130H3847H1322H168H7563H369
