Job 21:23 — Meaning and Application

For what pleasure {hath} he in his house after him, when the number of his months is cut off in the midst?

Shall {any} teach God knowledge? seeing he judgeth those that are high.

One dieth in his full strength, being wholly at ease and quiet. {his...: Heb. his very, or, the strength of, his perfection}

His breasts are full of milk, and his bones are moistened with marrow. {breasts: or, milk pails}

And another dieth in the bitterness of his soul, and never eateth with pleasure.
