Holy Scripture

Job 15:24

A church father on this verse
“This means that pain and anguish catches [the wicked] in the middle, just like in a field where on one side a king threatens with inimical banners and on the other side pillaging robbers impend, so that his mind and soul cannot be at rest.”
Ephrem the Syrian, 4th c. — COMMENTARY ON JOB 15:24

In context

22Let him not trust that he shall return from darkness, For he has been already made over to the power of the sword.

23And he has been appointed to be food for vultures; And he knows within himself that he is doomed to be a carcass: And a dark day shall carry him away as with a whirlwind.

— Job 15:24 —

25For he has lifted his hands against the Lord, And he has hardened his neck against the Almighty Lord.

26And he has run against him with insolence, On the thickness of the back of his shield.
