Job 8

Bildad speaks, presenting the argument from history and tradition. He begins by harshly suggesting that Job's children must have sinned for God to have destroyed them so suddenly. Bildad defends God's justice, asserting that God never perverts justice or cuts off the blameless. He advises Job to search the wisdom of past generations. Bildad promises that if Job is truly pure and upright, God will surely restore him and make his later state greater than his former, comparing the wicked to a fragile spider’s web.
