Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Job 9:23
COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD
23. If —Rather, "While (His) scourge slays suddenly (the wicked, :- ), He laughs at (disregards; not derides) the pining away of the innocent." The only difference, says Job, between the innocent and guilty is, the latter are slain by a sudden stroke, the former pine away gradually. The translation, "trial," does not express the antithesis to "slay suddenly," as "pining away" does [UMBREIT]. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-24" class="com-number"
