Job 21:17-22

Questioning the Timing of Divine Judgment

Job 21:17-22
17
"How often is the lamp of the wicked put out? How often does their calamity come upon them? How often does [God] deal out pain in his anger,
18
to make them like straw in the wind, like chaff carried off by a storm?
19
God lays up for their children [the punishment for their] iniquity. He should lay it on [the wicked] themselves, so that they can feel it!
20
Let their own eyes see their own destruction and themselves drink the wrath of Shaddai.
21
What joy can they have in their family after them, given that their months are numbered?
22
"Can anyone teach God knowledge? After all, he judges those who are on high.
