Questioning the Timing of Divine Judgment

Job 21:17-22

How often is the lamp of the wicked put out? Does disaster come upon them? Does God, in His anger, apportion destruction?

Are they like straw before the wind, like chaff swept away by a storm?

It is said that God lays up one’s punishment for his children. Let God repay the man himself, so he will know it.

Let his eyes see his own destruction; let him drink for himself the wrath of the Almighty.

For what does he care about his household after him, when the number of his months has run out?

Can anyone teach knowledge to God, since He judges those on high?
