Job 34:8 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

Which goeth in company with the workers of iniquity, and walketh with wicked men.

Ver. 8. Which goeth in company with the workers of iniquity] Strange if he should; for the wicked is abomination to the righteous, Proverbs 29:27. "Lord, gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men," saith David, Psalms 26:9. Lord, send me not to hell among the wicked (said a certain good woman upon her death bed), for thou knowest I never liked their company here on earth. But how proveth Elihu this charge against Job, who was ever a terror to graceless Belialists? Forsooth he gathereth it from a certain speech of his, if he could tell what, or when it was uttered.
