Job 33:29

Elihu’s Appeal to Job

33:29 “Indeed, God does all these things,

twice, three times, in his dealings with a person,

Job 40:5

40:5 I have spoken once, but I cannot answer;

twice, but I will say no more.”


sn Elihu will repeat these instructions for Job to listen, over and over in painful repetition. See note on the heading to 32:1.

tn The phrase “in his dealings” is not in the Hebrew text, but has been supplied in the translation for clarification.

tn Heb “I will not add.”
