SEV Biblia, Chapter 36:20
No anheles la noche, en la cual él corta los pueblos de su lugar.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 36:20
Verse 20. Desire not the night ] Thou hast wished for death; (here called night;) desire it not; leave that with God. If he hear thee, and send death, thou mayest be cut off in a way at which thy soul would shudder.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 15-23 - Elihu shows that Job caused the continuance of his own trouble. He cautions him not to persist in frowardness. Even good men need to be kept to their duty by the fear of God's wrath; the wisest and best have enough in them to deserve his stroke. Let not Job continue his unjus quarrel with God and his providence. And let us never dare to thin favourably of sin, never indulge it, nor allow ourselves in it. Elih thinks Job needed this caution, he having chosen rather to gratify his pride and humour by contending with God, than to mortify them by submitting, and accepting the punishment. It is absurd for us to thin to teach Him who is himself the Fountain of light, truth, knowledge and instruction. He teaches by the Bible, and that is the best book teaches by his Son, and he is the best Master. He is just in all proceedings.
