¶ The .xviij. Chapter. ¶ Baldad reherseth the paynes of the vnfaythfull and wyckyd.

A   Then answered Baldad the Suhite, and sayde: &rhand; when wyll ye make an ende of youre wordes? Marcke well, and then we wyll speake. Wherfore are we counted as beastes, ∧ reputed so vyle in youre sight? He destroied him selfe with his anger? Shal the earth be forsaken, or any stone remoued out of his place because of the? Yee, the light of the vngodly shall be put out? and the sparke of hys fyre shall not burne. The lyght shalbe darcke in his dwelling, and his candle shalbe put out with him. B   His presumpteous goinges are kepte in, and his awne councell shall cast him downe. For his fete are taken as it were in the nett, and he is at his wittes ende. His fote shalbe holden in the snare, and it shall catch them that be thyrsty of bloude. The snare is layed for him in the grounde, &abar;d a pytfall in the waye.

C   Fearfulnesse shall make him afrayed on euery syde, that he shall not knowe, where to get out. Honger shalbe his strength: mysfortune shall hange vpon him. He shall eate the strength of his awne skynne, eu&ebar; þe; fyrst borne of death shall eate his strength. His hope shalbe roted out of his dwellynge, very ferfulnesse shall bringe him &rhand; to the kyng. D   Other men shal dwell in his house (but shalbe none of his) and brymstone shalbe scatered vpon his habitacyon. His rotes shalbe dried vp beneth, and aboue shall his braunch be cutt downe. His remembraunce shall perysshe from þe; earth, and he shall haue no name in the strete: they shall dryue him from þe; light into darcknesse, and cast him cleane out of the worlde. He shall nether haue chyldr&ebar; nor kynsfolckes amonge his people, no, ner eny posterite in his dwellinges. They that come after hym, shalbe astonied at his daye, and they that go before, shall be afrayed. Soch are now the dwellynges of the wycked, and this is the place of hym þt; knoweth not God.
