Job 15:17 - Barnes' Notes

Job 15:17

Compare all

15 ^aIf God puts no trust in His saints,
And the heavens are not pure in His sight,

16 ^aHow much less man, who is abominable and filthy,
^bWho drinks iniquity like water!

17 “I will tell you, hear me;
What I have seen I will declare,

18 What wise men have told,
Not hiding anything received ^afrom their fathers,

19 To whom alone the¹ land was given,
And ^ano alien passed among them:

20 The wicked man writhes with pain all his days,
^aAnd the number of years is hidden from the oppressor.

21 ¹Dreadful sounds are in his ears;
^aIn prosperity the destroyer comes upon him.
