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

World English Bible

VERSE (21) - Job 14:21 Ec 2:18,19 Lu 16:27,28

SEV Biblia, Chapter 21:21

Porque ¿qué deleite tendrá el de su casa después de sí, siendo cortado el número de sus meses?

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 21:21

Verse 21. For what pleasure hath he in his house after him ] What may happen to his posterity he neither knows nor cares for, as he is now numbered with the dead, and numbered with them before he had lived out half his years. Some have translated the verse thus: "Behold how speedily God destroys the house of the wicked after him! How he shortens the number of his months!"

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 17-26 - Job had described the prosperity of wicked people; in these verses he opposes this to what his friends had maintained about their certai ruin in this life. He reconciles this to the holiness and justice of God. Even while they prosper thus, they are light and worthless, of n account with God, or with wise men. In the height of their pomp an power, there is but a step between them and ruin. Job refers the difference Providence makes between one wicked man and another, int the wisdom of God. He is Judge of all the earth, and he will do right So vast is the disproportion between time and eternity, that if hell by the lot of every sinner at last, it makes little difference if one goe singing thither, and another sighing. If one wicked man die in palace, and another in a dungeon, the worm that dies not, and the fir that is not quenched, will be the same to them. Thus differences in this world are not worth perplexing ourselves about.
