Job 6:19

Job 6:19

Compare all

17 When it is warm, they cease to flow;
When it is hot, they vanish from their place.

18 The paths of their way turn aside,
They go nowhere and perish.

19 The caravans of ^aTema look,
The travelers of ^bSheba hope for them.

20 They are ^adisappointed because they were confident;
They come there and are confused.

21 For now ^ayou are nothing,
You see terror and ^bare afraid.

Adam Clarke

<< Job 6:18

Job 6:20 >>

The troops of Tema looked - The caravans coming from Tema are represented as arriving at those places where it was well known torrents did descend from the mountains, and they were full of expectation that here they could not only slake their thirst, but fill their girbas or water-skins; but when they arrive, they find the waters totally dissipated and lost. In vain did the caravans of Sheba wait for them; they did not reappear: and they were confounded, because they had hoped to find here refreshment and rest.
