But Baldad the Suhite responded by saying:
How long will you throw around words? Understand first, and then let us speak.
Why have we been treated like mules, as if we were unworthy before you?
You, who ruins your own soul in your fury, will the earth be forsaken because of you, and will the cliffs be moved from their place?
Will not the light of the impious be put out, and the flame of his fire refuse to shine?
Light will become darkness in his tabernacle, and the lamp that is over him will be extinguished.
His strong steps will be constrained, and his own counsel will cast him down uncontrollably.
