NET © Notes

tn The verse gives the other side of the coin now, the fact that the wicked prosper.

tn The plural is used to suggest the supreme degree of arrogant confidence (E. Dhorme, Job, 171).

sn The line is perhaps best understood as describing one who thinks he is invested with the power of God.
