Job 36:16 Context
14They die in youth, and their life is among the vncleane. 15He deliuereth the poore in his affliction, and openeth their eares in oppression. 16Euen so would he haue remooued thee out of the strait into a broad place, where there is no straitnesse, and that which should be set on thy table, should be full of fatnesse. 17But thou hast fulfilled the iudgement of the wicked: iudgement and iustice take hold on thee. 18Because there is wrath, beware lest he take thee away with his stroke: then a great ransome cannot deliuer thee.
