Job 8:20
Compare all
18 aIf he is destroyed from his place,
Then it will deny him, saying, ‘I have not seen you.’ 
19 “Behold, this is the joy of His way,
And aout of the earth others will grow. 
20 Behold, aGod will not cast away the blameless,
Nor will He uphold the evildoers. 
21 He will yet fill your mouth with laughing,
And your lips with1 rejoicing. 
22 Those who hate you will be aclothed with shame,
And the dwelling place of the wicked1 will come to nothing.”

Job 8:20

Bildad regards Job as a righteous man, who has fallen into sin.

God will not cast away a perfect man—(or godly man, such as Job was), if he will only repent. Those alone who persevere in sin God will not help (Hebrew, "take by the hand," Psalms 73:23; Isaiah 41:13; Isaiah 42:6) when fallen.
