Job 20:22 - Forerunner Commentary

Job 20:22

20 “Because^a he knows no quietness in his heart,
He will not save anything he desires.

21 Nothing is left for him to eat;
Therefore his well-being will not last.

22 In his self-sufficiency he will be in distress;
Every hand of¹ misery will come against him.

23 When he is about to fill his stomach,
God will cast on him the fury of His wrath,
And will rain it on him while he is eating.

24 ^aHe will flee from the iron weapon;
A bronze bow will pierce him through.

25 It is drawn, and comes out of the body;
Yes, ^athe glittering point comes out of his¹ gall.
^bTerrors come upon him;

26 Total darkness is reserved for his treasures.
^aAn unfanned fire will consume him;
It shall go ill with him who is left in his tent.
