The wicked man travaileth with pain all [his] days, and the number of years is hidden to the oppressor.
Job 15:20 — KJV
The wicked man. Verses 20-35 comprise an elaborate oration, crowded with illustrations and metaphors, in which it is maintained that the wicked cannot possibly escape being miserable.
Travaileth. Job had declared, ‘They that provoke God are secure” (ch. 12:6). Eliphaz takes the opposite position. Both men seem to have overstated their case. Experience proves that the wicked may or may not be prosperous, and the righteous may or may not be afflicted.
