"because they have turned away from following him, and have not understood any of his ways,"
— Job 34:27, NET Bible
“Because they turned back from him, and would not consider any of his ways:”
“Because they turned aside from following him, And would not have regard in any of his ways: ”
“because they turned aside from following him, and wouldn't pay attention to any of his ways,”
“Who as it were on purpose have revolted from him, and would not understand all his ways:”
“Because they did not go after him, and took no note of his ways,”
“Because they turned back from him, and would not consider any of his ways:”
He shatters the great without inquiry, and sets up others in their place.
Therefore, he knows their deeds, he overthrows them in the night and they are crushed.
He strikes them for their wickedness, in a place where people can see,
because they have turned away from following him, and have not understood any of his ways,
so that they caused the cry of the poor to come before him, so that he hears the cry of the needy.
But if God is quiet, who can condemn him? If he hides his face, then who can see him? Yet he is over the individual and the nation alike,
so that the godless man should not rule, and not lay snares for the people.
