Job 36:17 - Forerunner Commentary

Job 36:17

15 He delivers the poor in their affliction,
And opens their ears in oppression.

16 “Indeed He would have brought you out of dire distress,
^aInto a broad place where there is no restraint;
And ^bwhat is set on your table would be full of ^crichness.

17 But you are filled with the judgment due the ^awicked;
Judgment and justice take hold of you.

18 Because there is wrath, beware lest He take you away with one blow;
For ^aa large ransom would not help you avoid it.

19 ^aWill your riches,
Or all the mighty forces,
Keep you from distress?

20 Do not desire the night,
When people are cut off in their place.
