Where Bildad appears in Scripture

Job 2

וַֽיִּשְׁמְעוּ שְׁלֹשֶׁת׀ רֵעֵי אִיּוֹב אֵת כָּל-הָֽרָעָה הַזֹּאת הַבָּאָה עָלָיו וַיָּבֹאוּ אִישׁ מִמְּקֹמוֹ אֱלִיפַז הַתֵּֽימָנִי וּבִלְדַּד הַשּׁוּחִי וְצוֹפַר הַנַּֽעֲמָתִי וַיִּוָּֽעֲדוּ יַחְדָּו לָבוֹא לָנֽוּד-לוֹ וּֽלְנַחֲמֽוֹ׃
11
Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that was come upon him, they came every one from his own place; Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite: for they had made an appointment together to come to mourn with him and to comfort him.

Job 8

וַיַּעַן בִּלְדַּד הַשּׁוּחִי וַיֹאמַֽר׃
1
Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,

Job 18

וַיַּעַן בִּלְדַּד הַשֻּׁחִי וַיֹּאמַֽר׃

Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,

Job 25

וַיַּעַן בִּלְדַּד הַשֻּׁחִי וַיֹּאמַֽר׃
1
Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,

Job 42

וַיֵּלְכוּ אֱלִיפַז הַתֵּֽימָנִי וּבִלְדַּד הַשּׁוּחִי צֹפַר הַנַּעֲמָתִי וַֽיַּעֲשׂוּ כַּאֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר אֲלֵיהֶם יְהוָה וַיִּשָּׂא יְהוָה אֶת-פְּנֵי אִיּֽוֹב׃

So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went, and did according as the LORD commanded them: the LORD also accepted Job.
