Job 8:1 (NIRV) New International Reader's Version

1 Then Bildad the Shuhite replied,
2 "Job, how long will you talk like that? Your words don't have any meaning.
3 Does God ever treat people unfairly? Does the Mighty One make what is wrong appear to be right?
4 Your children sinned against him. So he punished them for their sin.
5 But look to God. Make your appeal to the Mighty One.
6 Be pure and honest. And he will rise up and help you now. He'll return you to the place where you belong.
7 In the past, things went well with you. But in days to come, things will get even better.
8 "Find out what your people who lived long ago taught. Discover what those who lived before them learned.
9 After all, we were born only yesterday. So we don't know anything. Our days on this earth are like a shadow that disappears.
10 Won't your people of long ago teach you and tell you? Won't the things they said help you understand?
11 Can grass grow tall where there isn't any swamp? Can plants grow well where there isn't any water?
12 While they are still growing and haven't been cut, they dry up faster than grass does.
13 The same thing happens to everyone who forgets God. The hope of ungodly people dies out.
14 What they trust in is very weak. What they depend on is like a spider's web.
15 A person leans on it, but it falls apart. He holds on to it, but it gives way.
16 He is like a plant in the sunshine that receives plenty of water. It spreads its new growth all over the garden.
17 It wraps its roots around a pile of rocks. It tries to find places to grow among the stones.
18 But when a plant is pulled up from its spot, that place says, 'I never saw you.'
19 The life of that plant is sure to dry up. But from the same soil other plants will grow.
20 "I'm sure God doesn't turn his back on anyone who is honest. And he doesn't help those who do what is evil.
21 He will fill your mouth with laughter. Shouts of joy will come from your lips.
22 Your enemies will put on shame as if it were clothes. The tents of sinful people will be gone."
1 Then answered H6030 W-VQY3MS Bildad H1085 MMS the Shuhite H7747 D-LMS , and said H559 W-VQY3MS ,
2 How long H5704 PREP wilt thou speak H4448 VPY2MS these H428 PMP things ? and how long shall the words H561 CMP of thy mouth H6310 CMS-2MS be like a strong H3524 AMS wind H7307 W-GFS ?
3 Doth God H410 I-NPAR pervert H5791 VPY3MS judgment H4941 NMS ? or H518 W-PART doth the Almighty H7706 EDS pervert H5791 VPY3MS justice H6664 NMS ?
4 If H518 PART thy children H1121 CMP-2MS have sinned H2398 VQQ3MP against him , and he have cast them away H7971 W-VPY3MS-3MP for H3027 B-CFS their transgression H6588 CMS-3MP ;
5 If H518 PART thou H859 PPRO-2MS wouldest seek unto God quickly H7836 VPY2MS , and make thy supplication H2603 VHY2MS to H413 PREP the Almighty H7706 EDS ;
6 If H518 PART thou H859 PPRO-2MS wast pure H2134 AMS and upright H3477 W-AMS ; surely H3588 CONJ now H6258 ADV he would awake H5782 VHY3MS for H5921 PREP-2MS thee , and make the habitation H5116 CFS of thy righteousness H6664 CMS-2MS prosperous H7999 W-VPQ3MS .
7 Though thy beginning H7225 CFS-2MS was H1961 W-VQQ3MS small H4705 NMS , yet thy latter end H319 W-CFS-2MS should greatly H3966 ADV increase H7685 VQY3MS .
8 For H3588 CONJ inquire H7592 VQI2MS , I pray thee H4994 IJEC , of the former H7223 AMS age H1755 L-NMS , and prepare H3559 W-VPI2MS thyself to the search H2714 L-CMS of their fathers H1 CMP-3MP :
9 ( CONJ For CONJ we H587 PPRO-1MP are but of yesterday H8543 ADV , and know H3045 VQY1MP nothing H3808 W-NPAR , because H3588 CONJ our days H3117 CMP-1MP upon H5921 PREP earth H776 GFS are a shadow H6738 NMS : )
10 Shall not H3808 I-NADV they H1992 PPRO-3MP teach H3384 VHY3MP-2MS thee , and tell H559 VQY3MP thee , and utter H3318 VHY3MP words H4405 NMP out of their heart H3820 WM-CMS-3MP ?
11 Can the rush H1573 NMS grow up H1342 I-VQY3MS without H3808 B-NPAR mire H1207 NFS ? can the flag H260 NMS grow H7685 VQY3MS without H1097 ADV water H4325 NMP ?
12 Whilst it is yet H5750 ADV-3MS in his greenness H3 B-CMS-3MS , and not H3808 NADV cut down H6998 VNY3MS , it withereth H3001 VQY3MS before H6440 WL-CMP any H3605 CMS other herb H2682 NMS .
13 So H3651 ADV are the paths H734 CFP of all H3605 NMS that forget H7911 VQCMP God H410 EDS ; and the hypocrite H2611 NMS \'s hope H8615 W-CFS shall perish H6 VQY3MS :
14 Whose H834 RPRO hope H3689 CMS-3MS shall be cut off H6990 VQY3MS , and whose trust H4009 CMS-3MS shall be a spider H5908 NMS \'s web H1004 W-NMS .
15 He shall lean H8172 VNY3MS upon H5921 PREP his house H1004 NMS-3MS , but it shall not H3808 W-NPAR stand H5975 VQY3MS : he shall hold it fast H2388 VHY3MS , but it shall not H3808 W-NPAR endure H6965 VQY3MS .
16 He H1931 PPRO-3MS is green H7373 AMS before H6440 L-CMP the sun H8121 NMS , and his branch H3127 CFS-3MS shooteth forth H3318 VQY3FS in H5921 W-PREP his garden H1593 CFS-3MS .
17 His roots H8328 CMS-3MS are wrapped H5440 VUY3MP about H5921 PREP the heap H1530 NMS , and seeth H2372 VQY3MS the place H1004 CMS of stones H68 NFP .
18 If H518 PART he destroy H1104 VPY3MS-3MS him from his place H4725 M-CMS-3MS , then it shall deny H3584 W-VPQ3MS him , saying , I have not H3808 NADV seen H7200 VQQ3MS-2MS thee .
19 Behold H2005 PART , this H1931 PPRO-3MS is the joy H4885 CMS of his way H1870 CMS-3MS , and out of the earth H6083 WM-NMS shall others H312 AMS grow H6779 VQQ3MP .
20 Behold H2005 PART , God H410 EDS will not H3808 NADV cast away H3988 VQY3MS a perfect H8535 AMS man , neither H3808 ADV will he help H2388 VHY3MS the evildoers H7489 VHPMP :
21 Till H5704 PREP he fill H4390 VPY3MS thy mouth H6310 CMS-2MS with laughing H7814 NMS , and thy lips H8193 W-CFD-2MS with rejoicing H8643 NFS .
22 They that hate H8130 VQCMP-2MS thee shall be clothed H3847 VQY3MP with shame H1322 NFS ; and the dwelling place H168 W-CMS of the wicked H7563 AMP shall come to naught H369 ADV-3MS .
