Job 18

1 Then Bildad the Shuhite answered,

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 “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.

9 A snare will take him by the heel. A trap will catch him.

10 A noose is hidden for him in the ground, a trap for him on the path.

11 Terrors will make him afraid on every side, and will chase him at his heels.

12 His strength will be famished. Calamity will be ready at his side.

13 The members of his body will be devoured. The firstborn of death will devour his members.

14 He will be rooted out of the security of his tent. He will be brought to the king of terrors.

15 There will dwell in his tent that which is none of his. Sulfur will be scattered on his habitation.

16 His roots will be dried up beneath. His branch will be cut off above.

17 His memory will perish from the earth. He will have no name in the street.

18 He will be driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world.

19 He will have neither son nor grandson among his people, nor any remaining where he lived.

20 Those who come after will be astonished at his day, as those who went before were frightened.

21 Surely such are the dwellings of the unrighteous. This is the place of him who doesn’t know God.”

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How does the random Bible verse generator work?

Choose a topic, a book, and KJV or WEB, then select Generate New Verse. Every result comes from a real, numbered Scripture passage. The tools are free and do not require an account.

Is Orahly non-denominational?

Yes. Orahly is an independent, non-denominational Scripture tool for reading and reflection. It does not represent a church, and its content does not replace pastoral care or professional advice.

What is the difference between KJV and WEB?

The King James Version uses traditional English, while the World English Bible uses modern English. Some verse numbering differs between editions. Orahly preserves each edition and never silently substitutes another translation.

Is there a browser or mobile widget?

Download the free offline Chrome/Edge new-tab extension from the Widget page. Native mobile and desktop widgets are still concept previews; they are not installable apps yet.

Can I copy or share a Bible verse?

Yes. Select Copy to copy the verse and its reference, or Share Image to create an image in a square or portrait format. You can also copy a link that opens the exact same verse.
