8Then Bildad the Shuhite answered,H6030H1085H7747H559 2"How long will you say these [things,] And the words of your mouth be a mighty wind?H575H5704H4448H561H6310H3524H7307 3"Does God pervert justice Or does the Almighty pervert what is right?H410H5791H4941H7706H5791H6664 4"If your sons sinned against Him, Then He delivered them into the power of their transgression.H1121H2398H7971H3027H6588 5"If you would seek God And implore the compassion of the Almighty,H7836H410H7836H2603H7706 6If you are pure and upright, Surely now He would rouse Himself for you And restore your righteous estate.H2134H3477H5782H5116H6664H7999 7"Though your beginning was insignificant, Yet your end will increase greatly.H7225H4705H319H3966H7685 8"Please inquire of past generations, And consider the things searched out by their fathers.H7592H7223H7223H1755H3559H2714H1 9"For we are [only] of yesterday and know nothing, Because our days on earth are as a shadow.H8543H3045H3117H776H6738 10"Will they not teach you [and] tell you, And bring forth words from their minds?H3384H559H3318H4405H3820 11"Can the papyrus grow up without marsh? Can the rushes grow without water?H1573H1342H1207H7685H260H7685H1097H4325 12"While it is still green [and] not cut down, Yet it withers before any [other] plant.H3H6998H3001H6440H2682 13"So are the paths of all who forget God, And the hope of the godless will perish,H734H7911H410H2611H8615H6 14Whose confidence is fragile, And whose trust a spider's web.H3689H6990H4009H5908H1004 15"He trusts in his house, but it does not stand; He holds fast to it, but it does not endure.H8172H1004H5975H2388H6965 16"He thrives before the sun, And his shoots spread out over his garden.H7373H6440H8121H3127H3318H1593 17"His roots wrap around a rock pile, He grasps a house of stones.H8328H5440H1530H2372H1004H68 18"If he is removed from his place, Then it will deny him, [saying,] ' I never saw you. 'H1104H4725H3584H7200 19"Behold, this is the joy of His way; And out of the dust others will spring.H4885H1870H6083H312H6779 20"Lo, God will not reject [a man of] integrity, Nor will He support the evildoers.H410H3988H8535H2388H3027H7489 21"He will yet fill your mouth with laughter, And your lips with shouting.H4390H6310H7814H8193H8643 22"Those who hate you will be clothed with shame; And the tent of the wicked will be no more."H8130H3847H1322H168H7563H369
