 1 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,

 2 How long wilt thou speak these *things*? and *how long shall* the words of thy mouth *be like* a strong wind?

 3 Doth God pervert judgment? or doth the Almighty pervert justice?

 4 If thy children have sinned against him, and he have cast them away for their transgression;*

 5 If thou wouldest seek unto God betimes, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;

 6 If thou *wert* pure and upright; surely now he would awake for thee, and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.

 7 Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.

 8 For enquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers:

 9 (For we *are but of* yesterday, and know nothing, because our days upon earth *are* a shadow:)*

 10 Shall not they teach thee, *and* tell thee, and utter words out of their heart?

 11 Can the rush grow up without mire? can the flag grow without water?

 12 Whilst it *is* yet in his greenness, *and* not cut down, it withereth before any *other* herb.

 13 So *are* the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite’s hope shall perish:

 14 Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust *shall be* a spider’s web.*

 15 He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.

 16 He *is* green before the sun, and his branch shooteth forth in his garden.

 17 His roots are wrapped about the heap, *and* seeth the place of stones.

 18 If he destroy him from his place, then *it* shall deny him, *saying*, I have not seen thee.

 19 Behold, this *is* the joy of his way, and out of the earth shall others grow.

 20 Behold, God will not cast away a perfect *man*, neither will he help the evil doers:**

 21 Till he fill thy mouth with laughing, and thy lips with rejoicing.*

 22 They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame; and the dwelling place of the wicked shall come to nought.*
