Job 8

Verses of Job 8 of the NKJV from the book of the bible

KJV ASV NIV NKJV

1 - Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said:
2 - "How long will you speak these things, And the words of your mouth be like a strong wind?
3 - Does God subvert judgment? Or does the Almighty pervert justice?
4 - If your sons have sinned against Him, He has cast them away for their transgression.
5 - If you would earnestly seek God And make your supplication to the Almighty,
6 - If you were pure and upright, Surely now He would awake for you, And prosper your rightful dwelling place.
7 - Though your beginning was small, Yet your latter end would increase abundantly.
8 - "For inquire, please, of the former age, And consider the things discovered by their fathers;
9 - For we were born yesterday, and know nothing, Because our days on earth are a shadow.
10 - Will they not teach you and tell you, And utter words from their heart?
11 - "Can the papyrus grow up without a marsh? Can the reeds flourish without water?
12 - While it is yet green and not cut down, It withers before any other plant.
13 - So are the paths of all who forget God; And the hope of the hypocrite shall perish,
14 - Whose confidence shall be cut off, And whose trust is a spider's web.
15 - He leans on his house, but it does not stand. He holds it fast, but it does not endure.
16 - He grows green in the sun, And his branches spread out in his garden.
17 - His roots wrap around the rock heap, And look for a place in the stones.
18 - If he is destroyed from his place, Then it will deny him, saying, "I have not seen you.'
19 - "Behold, this is the joy of His way, And out of the earth others will grow.
20 - Behold, God will not cast away the blameless, Nor will He uphold the evildoers.
21 - He will yet fill your mouth with laughing, And your lips with rejoicing.
22 - Those who hate you will be clothed with shame, And the dwelling place of the wicked will come to nothing."
