They shall aspend their days in prosperity,
And their years in pleasures.
aInto a broad place where there is no restraint;
And bwhat is set on your table would be full of crichness.

Job 36:13-15
Same sentiment as Job 36:11-12, expanded.
hypocrites—or, the ungodly [MAURER]; but "hypocrites" is perhaps a distinct class from the openly wicked (Job 36:12).
heap up wrath—of God against themselves (Romans 2:5). UMBREIT translates, "nourish their wrath against God," instead of "crying" unto Him. This suits well the parallelism and the Hebrew. But the English Version gives a good parallelism, "hypocrites" answering to "cry not" (Job 27:8, Job 27:10); "heap up wrath" against themselves, to "He bindeth them" with fetters of affliction (Job 36:8).
