Job 18:4-21 O thou that dost tear thy soul in thine anger; shall the earth be forsaken because of thee and shall the rocks be removed out of their place?

EJ2000⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁴ O thou that dost tear thy soul in thine anger; shall the earth be forsaken because of thee and shall the rocks be removed out of their place? ⁵ ¶ The light of the wicked shall certainly be put out, and the spark of his fire shall not shine. ⁶ The light shall be dark in his tabernacle, and his lamp shall be put out with him. ⁷ The steps of his strength shall be cut down, and his own counsel shall cast him down. ⁸ For a net shall be cast at his feet, and he shall walk upon a network. ⁹ The snare shall take him by the heel, and the robber shall prevail against him. ¹⁰ The cord is hidden in the ground and a trap for him in the way. ¹¹ ¶ Terrors shall make him afraid on every side, and his own feet shall drive him away. ¹² His strength shall be hungerbitten, and destruction shall be ready at his side. ¹³ They shall devour the protection of his skin; the firstborn of death shall devour his members. ¹⁴ His confidence shall be rooted out of his tent, and he shall be brought to the king of terrors. ¹⁵ He shall dwell in his tent, as if it were not his; brimstone shall be scattered upon his habitation. ¹⁶ His roots shall be dried up beneath, and above his branch shall be cut off. ¹⁷ His memory shall perish from the earth, and he shall have no name in the streets. ¹⁸ He shall be driven from the light into the darkness and chased out of the world. ¹⁹ He shall have neither son nor grandson among his people, nor any to succeed him in his dwellings. ²⁰ Those that come after him shall be dismayed at his day, as those that went before were overcome with fear. ²¹ Surely such are the dwellings of the wicked, and this is the place of him that does not know God.
