job 36:17 But thou hast fulfilled the judgment of the wicked: judgment and justice take hold on thee.

job 36:17 "But you were full of judgment on the wicked; Judgment and justice take hold [of you].

17. Rather, "But if thou art fulfilled (that is, entirely filled) with the judgment of the wicked (that is, the guilt incurring judgment" [MAURER]; or rather, as UMBREIT, referring to Job 34:5-7, 36, the judgment pronounced on God by the guilty in misfortunes), judgment (God's judgment on the wicked, Jer 51:9, playing on the double meaning of "judgment") and justice shall closely follow each other [UMBREIT].

job 36:17 "But you were full of judgment on the wicked; Judgment and justice take hold [of you].
