Job 36:18 Context
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. 19Will he esteeme thy riches? no not gold, nor all the forces of strength. 20Desire not the night, when people are cut off in their place.
