They are wet with the showers of the mountains, and embrace the rock for want of a shelter.

So 5:2

SEV Biblia, Chapter 24:8

De la inundación de los montes fueron humedecidos, y abrazan las peñas sin tener en qué cubrirse.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 24:8

Verse 8. They are wet with the showers of the
mountains ] Mr. Good thinks that torrents, not showers, is the proper translation of the original µrz zerem; but I think showers of the mountain strictly proper. I have seen many of these in mountainous countries, where the tails of water-spouts have been intercepted and broken, and the outpouring of them would be incredible to those who have never witnessed similar phenomena. The rain fell in torrents, and produced torrents on the land, carrying away earth and stones and every thing before them, scooping out great gullies in the sides of the mountains. Mountain torrents are not produced but by such extraordinary outpourings of rain, formed either by water- spouts, or by vast masses of clouds intercepted and broken to pieces by the mountain tops.

And embrace the rock for want of a shelter. ] In such cases as that related above, the firm rock is the only shelter which can be found, or safely trusted.


Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 1-12 - Job discourses further about the prosperity of the wicked. That man live at ease who are ungodly and profane, he had showed, ch. xxi. Her he shows that many who live in open defiance of all the laws of justice, succeed in wicked practices; and we do not see them reckone with in this world. He notices those that do wrong under pretence of law and authority; and robbers, those that do wrong by force. He says "God layeth not folly to them;" that is, he does not at once send his judgments, nor make them examples, and so manifest their folly to all the world. But he that gets riches, and not by right, at his end shal be a fool, Jer 17:11.
