Job 21:18

Context

21:18 How often 1  are they like straw before the wind,

and like chaff swept away 2  by a whirlwind?

1 tn To retain the sense that the wicked do not suffer as others, this verse must either be taken as a question or a continuation of the question in v. 17.

2 tn The verb used actually means “rob.” It is appropriate to the image of a whirlwind suddenly taking away the wisp of straw.
