1 Then Bildad the Shuhite answered, 2 “How long will you speak these things? Shall the words of your mouth be a mighty wind? 3 Does God pervert justice? Or does the Almighty pervert righteousness? 4 If your children have sinned against him, he has delivered them into the hand of their disobedience. 5 If you want to seek God diligently, make your supplication to the Almighty. 6 If you were pure and upright, surely now he would awaken for you, and make the habitation of your righteousness prosperous. 7 Though your beginning was small, yet your latter end would greatly increase. 8 “Please inquire of past generations. Find out about the learning of their fathers. 9 (For we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because our days on earth are a shadow.) 10 Shall they not teach you, tell you, and utter words out of their heart?
