Job 18:5-21

CLV(i) 5 Indeed the light of the wicked shall be extinguished, And the flare of his fire shall not brighten. 6 The light in his tent, it will become dark, And his lamp above him, it shall be extinguished. 7 The steps of his virility shall become constricted, And his own counsel shall fling him down. 8 For he will be sent forth into a net by his feet, And he shall walk about on the mesh. 9 A snare shall hold him by his heel; A snag shall hold fast onto him. 10 The line of a noose is buried for him in the earth, And a seizing device for him on his track. 11 Decadent things frighten him round about, And they hound him at his every footstep. 12 His virility shall be turned to famishing, And calamity stands ready against his vital organs. 13 His skin shall be eaten by sickness; The firstborn of death shall eat his organs. 14 He shall be pulled away from his tent where his trust had dwelt; And it makes him march to the king of decay. 15 It shall tabernacle in his tent which no longer is his; Sulfur shall be sifted about his homestead. 16 From beneath, his roots dry up, And from above, his harvest branches are snipped off. 17 His remembrance perishes from the earth, And he has no name on the face of the open place. 18 They shall thrust him from light into darkness, And they shall chase him from the habitance. 19 For him there is no posterity and no progeny among his people, And there will be no survivor in the places of his sojourning. 20 Westerners are appalled at his day of ruin, And easterners hold back in horror. 21 Surely these were the tabernacles of an iniquitous man, And this was the place of one who knew not El.
