Job 8 — ENGLXXUP

8 Verse 1 Then Bildad the Shuhite answered, and said, ^{Verse 2} How long wilt thou speak these things, ^{Verse 3} Will the Lord be unjust when he judges; ^{Verse 4} If thy sons have sinned before him, ^{Verse 5} But be thou early in prayer to the Lord Almighty. ^{Verse 6} If thou art pure and true, he will hearken to thy supplication, ^{Verse 7} Though then thy beginning should be small, ^{Verse 8} For ask of the former generation, ^{Verse 9} (For we are of yesterday, and know nothing; ^{Verse 10} Shall not these teach thee, and report to thee, ^{Verse 11} Does the rush flourish without water, ^{Verse 12} When it is yet on the root, and though it has not been cut down, ^{Verse 13} Thus then shall be the end of all that forget the Lord: ^{Verse 14} For his house shall be without inhabitants, ^{Verse 15} If he should prop up his house, it shall not stand: ^{Verse 16} For it is moist under the sun, ^{Verse 17} He lies down upon a gathering of stones, ^{Verse 18} If God should destroy him, his place shall deny him. ^{Verse 19} That such is the overthrow of the ungodly? ^{Verse 20} For the Lord will by no means reject the harmless man; ^{Verse 21} But he will fill with laughter the mouth of the sincere, ^{Verse 22} But their adversaries shall clothe themselves with shame;
