Job 18:6-14 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

6. The light becomes dark in his tent, and his lamp above him is put out.

7. “His strong steps are shortened, and his own schemes throw him down,

8. for he is thrust into a net by his feet, and he walks into a pitfall.

9. A trap seizes him by the heel; a snare takes hold of him.

10. His rope is hidden in the ground, and his trap on the path.

11. “Sudden terrors terrify him all around, and they chase him at his heels.

12. His wealth will become hunger, and disaster is ready for his stumbling.

13. It consumes parts of his skin; the firstborn of death consumes his limbs.

14. He is torn from his tent in which he trusted, and it brought him to the king of terrors.
