Job 21:33

Context

21:33 The clods of the torrent valley 1  are sweet to him;

behind him everybody follows in procession,

and before him goes a countless throng.

Job 37:12

Context

37:12 The clouds 2  go round in circles,

wheeling about according to his plans,

to carry out 3  all that he commands them

over the face of the whole inhabited world.

1 tn The clods are those that are used to make a mound over the body. And, for a burial in the valley, see Deut 34:6. The verse here sees him as participating in his funeral and enjoying it. Nothing seems to go wrong with the wicked.

2 tn The words “the clouds” are supplied from v. 11; the sentence itself actually starts: “and it goes round,” referring to the cloud.

3 tn Heb “that it may do.”
