\v 1 Then Bildad replied again:
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 2 "Please stop talking!
|
|
\q2 If you would stop talking and listen, we could tell you something.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 3 Why do you think that we are as stupid as cattle and as unrighteous?
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 4 By being very angry, you are only hurting yourself.
|
|
\q2 Do you think that everyone on the earth must leave to prove that you are right,
|
|
\q2 or do you think that God must move the rocks in the mountains to please you?
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 5 What will happen is that the lives of wicked people like you end
|
|
\q2 as quickly as we can put out a light or extinguish the flame of a fire.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 6 When the lamps above them in their tents are extinguished,
|
|
\q2 there will be no light in those tents.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 7 While they are alive, they walk confidently,
|
|
\q2 but later it will be as though they stumbled and fell,
|
|
\q1 because they themselves do not pay attention to the advice that they give to others.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 8 It will be as though they had walked into their own net
|
|
\q2 or had fallen into a pit that they themselves dug.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 9 It will be as though a trap had grabbed their heels and held them fast,
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 10 as though the end of a rope that was hidden on the ground
|
|
\q2 had sprung up and seized them when they walked on it.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 11 Everywhere they go, there will be things that cause them to be terrified;
|
|
\q2 it will be as though those things were pursuing them and biting at their heels.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 12 They will become hungry, with the result that they will be strong no longer.
|
|
\q2 They will continually experience disasters.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 13 Diseases will spread all over their skin;
|
|
\q2 diseases will cause their bodies to decay.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 14 When they die, they will be snatched away from their tents
|
|
\q2 and brought to the one who rules over the dead.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 15 Then other people will live in their tents,
|
|
\q2 but only after they sprinkle sulfur on those tents to get rid of the disease!
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 16 Because they will die and leave no descendants,
|
|
\q2 they will be like trees whose roots have dried up and whose branches have all withered.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 17 No one on the earth will remember them anymore;
|
|
\q2 no one on any street will even remember their names.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 18 They will have to leave the earth, where there is light,
|
|
\q2 and rush into the place where it is dark.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 19 They will have no children or grandchildren,
|
|
\q2 no descendants where they will have previously lived.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 20 People from the east to the west who hear about what happened to them, everyone,
|
|
\q2 will be shocked and horrified.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 21 This is what happens to unrighteous people like you,
|
|
\q2 people who do not know God."
