A Warning Against Rejecting Discipline

Job 36:16-21

And also He moved thee from a strait place, To a broad place--no straitness under it, And the sitting beyond of thy table Hath been full of fatness.

And the judgment of the wicked thou hast fulfilled, Judgment and justice are upheld--because of fury,

Lest He move thee with a stroke, And the abundance of an atonement turn thee not aside.

Doth He value thy riches? He hath gold, and all the forces of power.

Desire not the night, For the going up of peoples in their stead.

Take heed--do not turn unto iniquity, For on this thou hast fixed Rather than on affliction.
