Job 8

1 Bildad sheweth God's justice in dealing with men according to their works. 8 He alledgeth antiquity to prove the certain destruction of the hypocrite. 20 He applieth God's just dealings to Job.

 8:1 ¶ Then answered 6030 z8799 Bildad 1085 the Shuhite, 7747 and said, 559 z8799

 8:2 How y575 long 5704 x575 wilt thou speak 4448 z8762 these x428 [things]? and [how long shall] the words 561 of thy mouth 6310 [be like] a strong 3524 wind? 7307

 8:3 Doth God 410 pervert 5791 z8762 judgment? 4941 or x518 doth the Almighty 7706 pervert 5791 z8762 justice? 6664

 8:4 If x518 thy children 1121 have sinned 2398 z8804 against him, and he have cast them away 7971 z8762 for 3027 their transgression; 6588

 8:5 If x518 thou x859 wouldest seek y7836 z0 unto God y410 betimes, 7836 z8762 x413 x410 and make thy supplication 2603 z8691 to x413 the Almighty; 7706

 8:6 If x518 thou x859 [wert] pure 2134 and upright; 3477 surely x3588 now x6258 he would awake 5782 z8686 for x5921 thee, and make the habitation 5116 of thy righteousness 6664 prosperous. 7999 z8765

 8:7 Though thy beginning 7225 was x1961 small, 4705 yet thy latter end 319 should greatly 3966 increase. 7685 z8799

 8:8 For x3588 enquire, 7592 z8798 I pray thee, x4994 of the former 7223 z8675 age, 1755 and prepare 3559 z8786 thyself to the search 2714 of their fathers: 1

 8:9 (For x3588 we x587 [are but of] yesterday, 8543 and know 3045 z8799 nothing, x3808 because x3588 our days 3117 upon x5921 earth 776 [are] a shadow:) 6738

 8:10 Shall not x3808 they x1992 teach 3384 z8686 thee, [and] tell 559 z8799 thee, and utter 3318 z8686 words 4405 out of their heart? 3820 x4480

 8:11 Can the rush 1573 grow up 1342 z8799 without x3808 mire? 1207 can y7685 z0 the flag 260 grow 7685 z8799 without 1097 water? 4325

 8:12 Whilst it [is] yet x5750 in his greenness, 3 [and] not x3808 cut down, 6998 z8735 it withereth 3001 z8799 before 6440 any x3605 [other] herb. 2682

 8:13 So x3651 [are] the paths 734 of all x3605 that forget 7911 z8802 God; 410 and the hypocrite's 2611 hope 8615 shall perish: 6 z8799

 8:14 Whose x834 hope 3689 shall be cut off, 6990 z8799 and whose trust 4009 [shall be] a spider's 5908 web. 1004

 8:15 He shall lean 8172 z8735 upon x5921 his house, 1004 but it shall not x3808 stand: 5975 z8799 he shall hold y2388 z8686 it fast, x2388 but it shall not x3808 endure. 6965 z8799

 8:16 He x1931 [is] green 7373 before 6440 the sun, 8121 and his branch 3127 shooteth forth 3318 z8799 in x5921 his garden. 1593

 8:17 His roots 8328 are wrapped x5440 about y5440 z8792 x5921 the heap, 1530 [and] seeth 2372 z8799 the place 1004 of stones. 68

 8:18 If x518 he destroy 1104 z8762 him from his place, 4725 x4480 then [it] shall deny 3584 z8765 him, [saying], I have not x3808 seen 7200 z8804 thee.

 8:19 Behold, x2005 this x1931 [is] the joy 4885 of his way, 1870 and out of the earth 6083 x4480 shall others 312 grow. 6779 z8799

 8:20 Behold, x2005 God 410 will not x3808 cast away 3988 z8799 a perfect 8535 [man], neither x3808 will he help 2388 3027 z8686 the evil doers: 7489 z8688

 8:21 Till x5704 he fill 4390 z8762 thy mouth 6310 with laughing, 7814 and thy lips 8193 with rejoicing. 8643

 8:22 They that hate 8130 z8802 thee shall be clothed 3847 z8799 with shame; 1322 and the dwelling y168 place x168 of the wicked 7563 shall come to nought. 369
