Verse 9 is found in chapter 18 of Job. Bildad again describes the destiny of the wicked through a long series of images of darkness, traps, loss, and terror. The speech presents a traditional pattern of judgment against the wicked, but its implicit application to Job becomes increasingly problematic. The description of the wicked person’s fate functions almost as a personal accusation.
