Job 8
Today's New International Version Help
8Then Bildad the Shuhite replied:H6030H1085H7747H559
2"How long will you say such things? Your words are a blustering wind.H575H5704H4448H561H6310H3524H7307
3Does God pervert justice? Does the Almighty pervert what is right?H410H5791H4941H7706H5791H6664
4When your children sinned against him, he gave them over to the penalty of their sin.H1121H2398H7971H3027H6588
5But if you will seek God earnestly and plead with the Almighty,H7836H410H7836H2603H7706
6if you are pure and upright, even now he will rouse himself on your behalf and restore you to your prosperous state.H2134H3477H5782H5116H6664H7999
7Your beginnings will seem humble, so prosperous will your future be.H7225H4705H319H3966H7685
8"Ask the former generation and find out what their ancestors learned,H7592H7223H7223H1755H3559H2714H1
9for we were born only yesterday and know nothing, and our days on earth are but a shadow.H8543H3045H3117H776H6738
10Will they not instruct you and tell you? Will they not bring forth words from their understanding?H3384H559H3318H4405H3820
11Can papyrus grow tall where there is no marsh? Can reeds thrive without water?H1573H1342H1207H7685H260H7685H1097H4325
12While still growing and uncut, they wither more quickly than grass.H3H6998H3001H6440H2682
13Such is the destiny of all who forget God; so perishes the hope of the godless.H734H7911H410H2611H8615H6
14What they trust in is fragile ; what they rely on is a spider's web.H3689H6990H4009H5908H1004
15They lean on the web, but it gives way; they cling to it, but it does not hold.H8172H1004H5975H2388H6965
16They are like a well-watered plant in the sunshine, spreading its shoots over the garden;H7373H6440H8121H3127H3318H1593
17it entwines its roots around a pile of rocks and looks for a place among the stones.H8328H5440H1530H2372H1004H68
18But when it is torn from its spot, that place disowns it and says, 'I never saw you.'H1104H4725H3584H7200
19Surely its life withers away, and from the soil other plants grow.H4885H1870H6083H312H6779
20"Surely God does not reject the blameless or strengthen the hands of evildoers.H410H3988H8535H2388H3027H7489
21He will yet fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with shouts of joy.H4390H6310H7814H8193H8643
22Your enemies will be clothed in shame, and the tents of the wicked will be no more."H8130H3847H1322H168H7563H369
