So are the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite's hope shall perish:

Verse 13 is found in chapter 8 of Job. Bildad uses images of plants, spiderwebs, and houses being uprooted to describe the fragility of those who forget God. He also states that God can restore the person who seeks his favor. The speech retains an important conviction about the stability of divine justice, but cannot explain Job’s case without turning tragedy into evidence of guilt.

So geht es allen denen, die Gottes vergessen; und die Hoffnung der Heuchler wird verloren sein.
Tales son los caminos de todos los que olvidan a Dios: Y la esperanza del impío perecerá:
Ainsi arrive-t-il à tous ceux qui oublient Dieu, Et l'espérance de l'impie périra.
Tali son le vie di tutti quelli che dimenticano Iddio, E così perirà la speranza dell’ipocrita;
Assim são as veredas de todos quantos se esquecem de Deus; e a esperança do hipócrita perecerá.
凡忘記上帝的人,路途也是這樣; 不虔敬人的指望要滅沒。
