1 - Then Bildad The Shuhite Replied:
2 - "How Long Will You Say Such Things? Your Words Are A Blustering Wind.
3 - Does God Pervert Justice? Does The Almighty Pervert What Is Right?
4 - When Your Children Sinned Against Him, He Gave Them Over To The Penalty Of Their Sin.
5 - But If You Will Look To God And Plead With The Almighty,
6 - If You Are Pure And Upright, Even Now He Will Rouse Himself On Your Behalf And Restore You To Your Rightful Place.
7 - Your Beginnings Will Seem Humble, So Prosperous Will Your Future Be.
8 - "Ask The Former Generations And Find Out What Their Fathers Learned,
9 - For We Were Born Only Yesterday And Know Nothing, And Our Days On Earth Are But A Shadow.
10 - Will They Not Instruct You And Tell You? Will They Not Bring Forth Words From Their Understanding?

17 - It Entwines Its Roots Around A Pile Of Rocks And Looks For A Place Among The Stones.
18 - But When It Is Torn From Its Spot, That Place Disowns It And Says, 'I Never Saw You.'
19 - Surely Its Life Withers Away, And From The Soil Other Plants Grow.
20 - "Surely God Does Not Reject A Blameless Man Or Strengthen The Hands Of Evildoers.
21 - He Will Yet Fill Your Mouth With Laughter And Your Lips With Shouts Of Joy.
22 - Your Enemies Will Be Clothed In Shame, And The Tents Of The Wicked Will Be No More."
