< Job 8 >
1 Then Bildad the Shuhite made answer and said,
And he answered Bildad the Shuhite and he said.
2 How long will you say these things, and how long will the words of your mouth be like a strong wind?
Until when? will you say these [things] and [will be] a wind mighty [the] words of mouth your.
3 Does God give wrong decisions? or is the Ruler of all not upright in his judging?
¿ God does he pervert justice and or? [the] Almighty does he pervert righteousness.
4 If your children have done evil against him, then their punishment is from his hand.
If children your they sinned to him and he sent them in [the] hand of transgression their.
5 If you will make search for God with care, and put your request before the Ruler of all;
If you you will seek God and to [the] Almighty you will seek favor.
6 If you are clean and upright; then he will certainly be moved to take up your cause, and will make clear your righteousness by building up your house again.
If [are] pure and upright you for now he will awake on you and he will restore [the] abode of righteousness your.
7 And though your start was small, your end will be very great.
And it will be beginning your a small thing and future your it will grow exceedingly.
8 Put the question now to the past generations, and give attention to what has been searched out by their fathers:
For ask please of a generation former and give attention to [the] searching of ancestors their.
9 (For we are but of yesterday, and have no knowledge, because our days on earth are gone like a shade: )
For [are] yesterday we and not we know that [are] a shadow days our on earth.
10 Will they not give you teaching, and say words of wisdom to you?
¿ Not they will they instruct you will they say? to you and from heart their will they bring forth? words.
11 Will the river-plant come up in its pride without wet earth? will the grass get tall without water?
¿ Will it grow tall papyrus with not marsh will it grow? reed[s] not water.
12 When it is still green, without being cut down, it becomes dry and dead before any other plant.
Still it [is] in greenness its not it is plucked off and before any herbage it is dried up.
13 So is the end of all who do not keep God in mind; and the hope of the evil-doer comes to nothing:
[are] thus [the] paths of All [those who] forget God and [the] hope of [the] godless it will be lost.
14 Whose support is cut off, and whose hope is no stronger than a spider's thread.
[the one] who It snaps confidence his and [is the] house of a spider trust his.
15 He is looking to his family for support, but it is not there; he puts his hope in it, but it comes to nothing.
He supports himself on house his and not it stands he takes hold on it and not it endures.
16 He is full of strength before the sun, and his branches go out over his garden.
[is] a fresh [plant] He before [the] sun and over garden its young shoot[s] its it goes out.
17 His roots are twisted round the stones, forcing their way in between them.
Over a heap roots its they are interwoven between stones it sees.
18 If he is taken away from his place, then it will say, I have not seen you.
If someone will swallow it from place its and it will deny it not I have seen you.
19 Such is the joy of his way, and out of the dust another comes up to take his place.
There! that [is] [the] joy of way its and from [the] dust another they will spring up.
20 Truly, God will not give up him who is without sin, and will not take evil-doers by the hand.
There! God not he rejects a blameless [person] and not he takes hold on [the] hand of evil-doers.
21 The time will come when your mouth will be full of laughing, and cries of joy will come from your lips.
Until he will fill laughter mouth your and lips your a shout of joy.
22 Your haters will be clothed with shame, and the tent of the sinner will not be seen again.
[those who] hate You they will be clothed shame and [the] tent of wicked [people] there not [will be] it.
