Job 12:24

Context

12:24 He deprives the leaders of the earth 1 

of their understanding; 2 

he makes them wander

in a trackless desert waste. 3 

Job 38:41

Context

38:41 Who prepares prey for the raven,

when its young cry out to God

and wander about 4  for lack of food?

1 tn Heb “the heads of the people of the earth.”

2 tn Heb “heart.”

3 tn The text has בְּתֹהוּ לֹא־דָרֶךְ (bÿtohu lodarekh): “in waste – no way,” or “in a wasteland [where there is] no way,” thus, “trackless” (see the discussion of negative attributes using לֹא [lo’] in GKC 482 §152.u).

4 tn The verse is difficult, making some suspect that a line has dropped out. The little birds in the nest hardly go wandering about looking for food. Dhorme suggest “and stagger for lack of food.”
