Job 18:5 in context

Job 18:2–8

2

“How long will you hunt for words?

Consider, and afterwards we will speak.

3

Why are we counted as animals,

which have become unclean in your sight?

4

You who tear yourself in your anger,

will the earth be forsaken for you?

Or will the rock be removed out of its place?

5
Selected verse

“Yes, the light of the wicked will be put out.

The spark of his fire won’t shine.

6

The light will be dark in his tent.

His lamp above him will be put out.

7

The steps of his strength will be shortened.

His own counsel will cast him down.

8

For he is cast into a net by his own feet,

and he wanders into its mesh.
