“He believeth not that he shall return out of darkness, and he is waited for of the sword.”
Job 15:22 (KJV)
Commentary on Job 15:22
The wicked expect doom: 'He believeth not that he shall return out of darkness, and he is waited for of the sword.' Lack of hope characterizes the wicked—they don't expect to escape their dark circumstances. The sword 'waiting for' them suggests inevitable judgment. Eliphaz implies Job's despair indicates wickedness. But righteous sufferers in Scripture often express hopelessness (Psalms, Lamentations) without indicating guilt—despair can arise from suffering, not necessarily sin.
