Job 38:15

Listen to Job 38:15
15 Pour que les méchants soient privés de leur lumière, Et que le bras qui se lève soit brisé?

Job 38:15 Meaning and Commentary

Job 38:15

And from the wicked their light is withholden
Whose light is darkness, and whose day is the night, of which they are deprived when the morning light breaks forth; see ( Job 24:17 ) ; it may be figuratively understood of the light of prosperity being removed from them, or the light of life, when they shall be sent into utter darkness;

and the high arm shall be broken;
their power weakened and made useless; even the power of such wicked men who have had a large share of it, and have used it in a tyrannical manner; and especially this will be their case at death; see ( Isaiah 14:10 Isaiah 14:12 ) .

Job 38:15 In-Context

13 Pour qu'elle saisisse les extrémités de la terre, Et que les méchants en soient secoués;
14 Pour que la terre se transforme comme l'argile qui reçoit une empreinte, Et qu'elle soit parée comme d'un vêtement;
15 Pour que les méchants soient privés de leur lumière, Et que le bras qui se lève soit brisé?
16 As-tu pénétré jusqu'aux sources de la mer? T'es-tu promené dans les profondeurs de l'abîme?
17 Les portes de la mort t'ont-elles été ouvertes? As-tu vu les portes de l'ombre de la mort?
