Job 18:8-21 ▼

8 For he was cast into a net by his feet, and he will go about upon latticework.

9 A snare shall lay hold upon the heel, the noose shall hold fast upon him.

10 His gin being hid in the earth, and his snare upon the beaten path.

11 Terrors made him afraid round about, and scattered him to his feet.

12 His strength shall be hunger, and destruction being prepared at his side.

13 It shall devour the bars of his skin: the first-born of death shall devour his bars.

14 His confidence shall be plucked out from his tent, and it shall drive him to the king of terrors.

15 It shall dwell in his tent, from not to him: brimstone shall be scattered upon his dwelling.

16 From underneath, his roots shall be dried up, and from above, his harvest shall be cut off.

17 His remembrance shall perish from the earth, and not a name to him upon a face without.

18 They shall drive him out of light into darkness, and they shall exclude him from the habitable globe.

19 No offspring to him, and no progeny among his people, and not a survivor in his dwellings.

20 Others were astonished at his day, and the ancient took hold on shuddering.

21 Also these the dwellings of evil, and this the place of him not knowing God.
