Job 8:1 - 8:7

Bildad Claims God Rewards the Good

Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,
2
“How long will you say these things,
And the words of your mouth be a mighty wind?
3
Does God pervert justice?
Or does the Almighty pervert what is right?
4
If your sons sinned against Him,
Then He sent them into the power of their transgression.
5
If you would seek God earnestly
And plead for the grace of the Almighty,
6
If you are pure and upright,
Indeed now He would rouse Himself for you
And make your righteous abode at peace.
7
Though your beginning was insignificant,
Yet your end will increase greatly.
