Through My Bible Yr 1 – August 4
Bible reading based on Job 18-19 (NIV84) 1Then Bildad the Shuhite replied: 2 “When will you end these speeches? 3 Why are we regarded as cattle 4 You who tear yourself to pieces in your anger,
5 “The lamp of the wicked is snuffed out; 6 The light in his tent becomes dark; 7 The vigor of his step is weakened; 8 His feet thrust him into a net 9 A trap seizes him by the heel;
10 A noose is hidden for him on the ground; 11 Terrors startle him on every side 12 Calamity is hungry for him; 13 It eats away parts of his skin; 14 He is torn from the security of his tent 15 Fire resides [a] in his tent; 16 His roots dry up below 17 The memory of him perishes from the earth; 18 He is driven from light into darkness 19 He has no offspring or descendants among his people, 20 Men of the west are appalled at his fate; 21 Surely such is the dwelling of an evil man; 1Then Job replied: 2 “How long will you torment me 3 Ten times now you have reproached me; 4 If it is true that I have gone astray, 5 If indeed you would exalt yourselves above me 6 then know that God has wronged me 7 “Though I cry, ‘I’ve been wronged!’ I get no response; 8 He has blocked my way so I cannot pass; 9 He has stripped me of my honor 10 He tears me down on every side till I am gone; 11 His anger burns against me; 12 His troops advance in force; 13 “He has alienated my brothers from me; 14 My kinsmen have gone away; 15 My guests and my maidservants count me a stranger; 16 I summon my servant, but he does not answer, 17 My breath is offensive to my wife; 18 Even the little boys scorn me; 19 All my intimate friends detest me; 20 I am nothing but skin and bones; 21 “Have pity on me, my friends, have pity, 22 Why do you pursue me as God does? 23 “Oh, that my words were recorded, 24 that they were inscribed with an iron tool on [c] lead, 25 I know that my Redeemer [d] lives, 26 And after my skin has been destroyed, 27 I myself will see him 28 “If you say, ‘How we will hound him, 29 you should fear the sword yourselves; Through My Bible – August 4

Bildad
Be sensible, and then we can talk.
and considered stupid in your sight?
is the earth to be abandoned for your sake?
Or must the rocks be moved from their place?
the flame of his fire stops burning.
the lamp beside him goes out.
his own schemes throw him down.
and he wanders into its mesh.
a snare holds him fast.
a trap lies in his path.
and dog his every step.
disaster is ready for him when he falls.
death’s firstborn devours his limbs.
and marched off to the king of terrors.
burning sulfur is scattered over his dwelling.
and his branches wither above.
he has no name in the land.
and is banished from the world.
no survivor where once he lived.
men of the east are seized with horror.
such is the place of one who knows not God.”Job 19
Job
and crush me with words?
shamelessly you attack me.
my error remains my concern alone.
and use my humiliation against me,
and drawn his net around me.
though I call for help, there is no justice.
he has shrouded my paths in darkness.
and removed the crown from my head.
he uproots my hope like a tree.
he counts me among his enemies.
they build a siege ramp against me
and encamp around my tent.
my acquaintances are completely estranged from me.
my friends have forgotten me.
they look upon me as an alien.
though I beg him with my own mouth.
I am loathsome to my own brothers.
when I appear, they ridicule me.
those I love have turned against me.
I have escaped with only the skin of my teeth. [b]
for the hand of God has struck me.
Will you never get enough of my flesh?
that they were written on a scroll,
or engraved in rock forever!
and that in the end he will stand upon the earth. [e]
yet [f] in [g]my flesh I will see God;
with my own eyes—I, and not another.
How my heart yearns within me!
since the root of the trouble lies in him, [h]‘
for wrath will bring punishment by the sword,
and then you will know that there is judgment. [i] ”
