Job 18:5-16
New International Version
5 “The lamp of a wicked man is snuffed out;(A)
the flame of his fire stops burning.(B)
6 The light in his tent(C) becomes dark;(D)
the lamp beside him goes out.(E)
7 The vigor(F) of his step is weakened;(G)
his own schemes(H) throw him down.(I)
8 His feet thrust him into a net;(J)
he wanders into its mesh.
9 A trap seizes him by the heel;
a snare(K) holds him fast.(L)
10 A noose(M) is hidden for him on the ground;
a trap(N) lies in his path.(O)
11 Terrors(P) startle him on every side(Q)
and dog(R) his every step.
12 Calamity(S) is hungry(T) for him;
disaster(U) is ready for him when he falls.(V)
13 It eats away parts of his skin;(W)
death’s firstborn devours his limbs.(X)
14 He is torn from the security of his tent(Y)
and marched off to the king(Z) of terrors.(AA)
15 Fire resides[a] in his tent;(AB)
burning sulfur(AC) is scattered over his dwelling.
16 His roots dry up below(AD)
and his branches wither above.(AE)
