"Why do we seem as beasts in your eyes, and as completely without knowledge?"
— Job 18:3, Bible in Basic English
“Wherefore are we counted as beasts, and reputed vile in your sight?”
“Why are we counted as animals, which have become unclean in your sight?”
“Why should we be regarded as beasts, and considered stupid in your sight?”
“Why are we reputed as beasts, and counted vile before you?”
“Wherefore are we counted as beasts, and reputed vile in your sight?”
Then Bildad the Shuhite made answer and said,
How long will it be before you have done talking? Get wisdom, and then we will say what is in our minds.
Why do we seem as beasts in your eyes, and as completely without knowledge?
But come back, now, come: you who are wounding yourself in your passion, will the earth be given up because of you, or a rock be moved out of its place?
For the light of the sinner is put out, and the flame of his fire is not shining.
The light is dark in his tent, and the light shining over him is put out.
