CHAP. VIII.
1 Bildad sheweth that Iob is a sinner, because God punisheth
the wicked and preserueth the good.
1 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and saide,
2 Howe long wilt thou talke of these
things? and howe long shall the wordes of thy
mouth note be as a mightie winde?
3 Doeth God peruert iudgement? or doeth
the Almightie subuert iustice?
4 If thy sonnes haue sinned against him, and
he hath sent them into the place of their note iniquitie,
-- --
Gods power.
5 Yet if thou note wilt early seeke vnto God, and
pray to the Almightie,
6 If thou be pure and vpright, then surely hee
will awake vp vnto thee, and he wil make the habitation
of thy righteousnesse prosperous.
7 And though thy beginning note be small, yet
thy latter ende shall greatly encrease.
8 noteInquire therefore, I pray thee, of the former
age, and prepare thy selfe to search of their
fathers.
9 (For we are but note of yesterday, and are ignorant:
for our dayes vpon earth are but a shadowe)
10 Shall not they teach thee and tell thee, and
vtter the wordes of their heart?
11 Can a rush note grow without myre? or can þe;
grasse growe without water?
12 Though it were in greene and not cutte
downe, yet shall it wither before any other herbe.
13 So are the paths of al that forget God, and
the hypocrites hope shall perish.
14 His confidence also shalbe cut off, and his
trust shalbe as the house of a note spyder.
15 He shall leane vpon his house, but it shall
not stand: he shal holde him fast by it, yet shall
it not endure.
16 The note tree is greene before the sunne, and
the branches spread ouer the garden thereof.
17 The rootes thereof are wrapped about the
fountaine, and are folden about þe; house of stones.
18 If any plucke it from his place, and it note denie,
saying, I haue not seene thee,
19 Beholde, it will reioyce note by this meanes,
that it may growe in another molde.
20 Behold, God will not cast away an vpright
man, neither will he take the wicked by the hand,
21 Till he haue filled thy mouth with note laughter,
and thy lippes with ioy.
22 They that hate thee, shall be clothed with
shame, and the dwelling of the wicked shall not
remaine.
