King James Bible - Job 36:21

Take heed, regard not iniquity: for this hast thou chosen rather than affliction.

World English Bible

Take heed, don't regard iniquity; for you have chosen this rather than affliction.

Douay-Rheims - Job 36:21

Beware thou turn not aside to iniquity : for this thou hast begun to follow after misery.

Webster's Bible Translation

Take heed, regard not iniquity: for this hast thou chosen rather than affliction.

Original Hebrew

SEV Biblia, Chapter 36:21

Guárdate, no mires a la iniquidad; teniéndola por mejor que la pobreza.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 36:21

Verse 21. Regard not
iniquity ] It is sinful to entertain such wishes; it is an insult to the providence of God. He sends affliction; he knows this to be best for thee: but thou hast preferred death to affliction, thereby setting thy wisdom against the wisdom of God. Many in affliction, long for death; and yet they are not prepared to appear before God! What madness is this! If he takes them at their wish, they are ruined for ever. Affliction may be the means of their salvation; the wished-for death, of their eternal destruction.

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.
