Then answeredH6030 BildadH1085 the ShuhiteH7747, and saidH559,
HowH575 longH5704 wilt thou speakH4448 these things? and how long shall the wordsH561 of thy mouthH6310 be like a strongH3524 windH7307?
Doth GodH410 pervertH5791 judgmentH4941? or doth the AlmightyH7706 pervertH5791 justiceH6664?
If thy childrenH1121 have sinnedH2398 against him, and he have cast them awayH7971 forH3027 their transgressionH6588; {for…: Heb. in the hand of their transgression}
If thou wouldest seekH7836 unto GodH410 betimesH7836, and make thy supplicationH2603 to the AlmightyH7706;
If thou wert pureH2134 and uprightH3477; surely now he would awakeH5782 for thee, and make the habitationH5116 of thy righteousnessH6664 prosperousH7999.
Though thy beginningH7225 was smallH4705, yet thy latter endH319 should greatlyH3966 increaseH7685.
For enquireH7592, I pray thee, of the formerH7223+H7223 ageH1755, and prepareH3559 thyself to the searchH2714 of their fathersH1:
(For we are but of yesterdayH8543, and knowH3045 nothing, because our daysH3117 upon earthH776 are a shadowH6738:) {nothing: Heb. not}
Shall not they teachH3384 thee, and tellH559 thee, and utterH3318 wordsH4405 out of their heartH3820?
Can the rushH1573 grow upH1342 without mireH1207? canH7685 the flagH260 growH7685 withoutH1097 waterH4325?
Whilst it is yet in his greennessH3, and not cut downH6998, it witherethH3001 beforeH6440 any other herbH2682.
So are the pathsH734 of all that forgetH7911 GodH410; and the hypocrite'sH2611 hopeH8615 shall perishH6:
Whose hopeH3689 shall be cut offH6990, and whose trustH4009 shall be a spider'sH5908 webH1004. {web: Heb. house}
He shall leanH8172 upon his houseH1004, but it shall not standH5975: he shall holdH2388 it fast, but it shall not endureH6965.
He is greenH7373 beforeH6440 the sunH8121, and his branchH3127 shooteth forthH3318 in his gardenH1593.
His rootsH8328 are wrapped aboutH5440 the heapH1530, and seethH2372 the placeH1004 of stonesH68.
If he destroyH1104 him from his placeH4725, then it shall denyH3584 him, saying, I have not seenH7200 thee.
Behold, this is the joyH4885 of his wayH1870, and out of the earthH6083 shall othersH312 growH6779.
Behold, GodH410 will not cast awayH3988 a perfectH8535 man, neither will he helpH2388+H3027 the evil doersH7489: {help…: Heb. take the ungodly by the hand}
Till he fillH4390 thy mouthH6310 with laughingH7814, and thy lipsH8193 with rejoicingH8643. {rejoicing: Heb. shouting for joy}
They that hateH8130 thee shall be clothedH3847 with shameH1322; and the dwellingH168 place of the wickedH7563 shall come to noughtH369. {shall come…: Heb. shall not be}

His rootsH8328 shall be dried upH3001 beneath, and aboveH4605 shall his branchH7105 be cut offH5243.
My rootH8328 was spread outH6605 by the watersH4325, and the dewH2919 lay all nightH3885 upon my branchH7105. {spread…: Heb. opened}
Therefore as the fireH784 devourethH398 the stubbleH7179, and the flameH3956+H3852 consumethH7503 the chaffH2842, so their rootH8328 shall be as rottennessH4716, and their blossomH6525 shall go upH5927 as dustH80: because they have cast awayH3988 the lawH8451 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, and despisedH5006 the wordH565 of the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478. {fire: Heb. tongue of fire}
Yea, they shall not be plantedH5193; yea, they shall not be sownH2232: yea, their stockH1503 shall not take rootH8327 in the earthH776: and he shall also blowH5398 upon them, and they shall witherH3001, and the whirlwindH5591 shall takeH5375 them away as stubbleH7179.
RighteousH6662 art thou, O LORDH3068, when I pleadH7378 with thee: yet let me talkH1696 with thee of thy judgmentsH4941: Wherefore doth the wayH1870 of the wickedH7563 prosperH6743? wherefore are all they happyH7951 that deal veryH899 treacherouslyH898? {talk…: or, reason the case with thee}
Thou hast plantedH5193 them, yea, they have taken rootH8327: they growH3212, yea, they bring forthH6213 fruitH6529: thou art nearH7138 in their mouthH6310, and far fromH7350 their reinsH3629. {they grow: Heb. they go on}
