Job 18:20 (KJV)

Commentary on Job 18:20

The wicked become objects of horror: 'They that come after him shall be astonied at his day, as they that went before were affrighted.' Future and past generations alike react with horror to the wicked's fate. The Hebrew 'shamem' (astonished/appalled) suggests stunned horror. Bildad predicts Job will become cautionary tale—exactly what his friends have attempted to make him. Ironically, Job does become example, but of faithfulness under trial, not wickedness judged.
