New International Version Anglicized

Job 18:5-14 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

5. ‘The lamp of a wicked man is snuffed out;the flame of his fire stops burning.

6. The light in his tent becomes dark;the lamp beside him goes out.

7. The vigour of his step is weakened;his own schemes throw him down.

8. His feet thrust him into a net;he wanders into its mesh.

9. A trap seizes him by the heel;a snare holds him fast.

10. A noose is hidden for him on the ground;a trap lies in his path.

11. Terrors startle him on every sideand dog his every step.

12. Calamity is hungry for him;disaster is ready for him when he falls.

13. It eats away parts of his skin;death’s firstborn devours his limbs.

14. He is torn from the security of his tentand marched off to the king of terrors.
