Job 36:21-23
New English Translation
21 Take heed, do not turn to evil,
for because of this you have been tested[a] by affliction.
22 Indeed, God is exalted in his power;
who is a teacher[b] like him?
23 Who has prescribed his ways for him?
Or said to him, ‘You have done what is wicked’?
Footnotes
- Job 36:21 tn Normally “tested” would be the translation for the Niphal of בָּחַר (bakhar). Although the Qal is employed here, the context favors “tested” rather than “chose.”
- Job 36:22 tn The word מוֹרֶה (moreh) is the Hiphil participle from יָרַה (yarah). It is related to the noun תּוֹרָה (torah, “what is taught” i.e., the law).
