The passage in its setting

Meeting God in a verse begins with hearing it where it lives, in the flow of Job 34. Read it slowly, and let the focal verse settle into its own context.

¹⁷ Shall even he that hateth right govern? and wilt thou condemn him that is most just?

¹⁸ Is it fit to say to a king, Thou art wicked? and to princes, Ye are ungodly?

¹⁹ How much less to him that accepteth not the persons of princes, nor regardeth the rich more than the poor? for they all are the work of his hands.

²⁰ In a moment shall they die, and the people shall be troubled at midnight, and pass away: and the mighty shall be taken away without hand.

²¹ For his eyes are upon the ways of man, and he seeth all his goings.
