“Remember, now, whoever perished, being innocent? Or where were the upright cut off?
Consider now, I plead: Who, being innocent, has ever perished? Or where have the upright been destroyed?
Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished, being innocent? or where were the righteous cut off?
Remember, I pray thee, who [ever] perished, being innocent? Or where were the upright cut off?
Have you ever seen destruction come to an upright man? or when were the god-fearing ever cut off?
Tap a word to see what it means and everywhere else it's used.
Matthew Henry · Verses 7–11
Eliphaz argues, 1. That good men were never thus ruined. But there is one event both to the righteous and to the wicked, Ec 9:2, both in life and death; the great and certain difference is after death. Our worst mistakes are occasioned by drawing wrong views from undeniable truths. 2. That wicked men were often thus ruined: for the proof of this, Eliphaz vouches his own observation. We may see the same every day.
