Job 27:18 - Forerunner Commentary

Job 27:18

Compare all

16 Though he heaps up silver like dust,
And piles up clothing like clay—

17 He may pile it up, but ^athe just will wear it,
And the innocent will divide the silver.

18 He builds his house like a¹ moth,
^aLike a¹ booth which a watchman makes.

19 The rich man will lie down,
¹But not be gathered up;
He opens his eyes,
And he is ^ano more.

20 ^aTerrors overtake him like a flood;
A tempest steals him away in the night.
