Job 36:16
King James VersionSource notes
“Even so would he have removed thee out of the strait a broad place, where no straitness; and that which set on thy table should be full of fatness.”
Context
13But the hypocrites in heart heap up wrath: they cry not when he bindeth them.
14They die in youth, and their life among the unclean.
15He delivereth the poor in his affliction, and openeth their ears in oppression.
16Even so would he have removed thee out of the strait a broad place, where no straitness; and that which set on thy table should be full of fatness.
17But thou hast fulfilled the judgment of the wicked: judgment and justice take hold
18Because wrath, lest he take thee away with stroke: then a great ransom cannot deliver thee.
19Will he esteem thy riches? not gold, nor all the forces of strength.
