Job 36:14

They die ¹  in their youth, and their life ends among the male cultic prostitutes. ² 

Ge 19:5,24,25; Ge 38:7-10; Le 10:1,2; De 23:17; Job 15:32; Job 21:23-25; Job 22:16; Ps 55:23

¹ tn The text expresses this with “their soul dies.”

² tn Heb “among the male prostitutes” who were at the temple – the “holy ones,” with “holy” being used in that sense of “separated to that form of temple service.” So uncleanness and shame are some of the connotations of the reference. Some modern translations give the general sense only: “their life ends in shame” (NRSV); “and perish among the reprobate” (NAB); “die…after wasting their lives in immoral living” (NLT).
