Giobbe 18:1 Meaning and Commentary

Job 18:1

Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said.
] Who, next to Eliphaz, spoke before, and now in his turn attacks Job a second time, and more roughly and severely than before; now he gives him no advice or counsel, nor any instructions and exhortations for his good, nor suggests that it might be better times with him again, as he had done before; but only heaps up charges against him, and describes the miserable circumstances of a wicked man, as near to Job's as he could; thereby endeavouring to confirm his former position, that wicked men are punished of God, and to have this conclusion drawn from it, that Job must needs be a wicked man, since he was so greatly afflicted.

Giobbe 18:1 In-Context

1 Allora Bildad di Suach rispose e disse:

2 "Quando porrete fine alle parole? Fate senno, e poi parleremo.

3 Perché siamo considerati come bruti e perché siamo agli occhi vostri degli esseri impuri?

4 O tu, che nel tuo cruccio laceri te stesso, dovrà la terra, per cagion tua, essere abbandonata e la roccia esser rimossa dal suo luogo?

5 Sì, la luce dell’empio si spegne, e la fiamma del suo fuoco non brilla.
