26 For then shalt thou have thy delight in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face unto God.
26 Surely then you will find delight in the Almighty and will lift up your face to God.
26 For then you will delight yourself in the Almighty and lift up your face to God.
26 "You'll take delight in God, the Mighty One, and look to him joyfully, boldly.
26 For then you will have your delight in the Almighty, And lift up your face to God.
26 "Then you will take delight in the Almighty and look up to God.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Job 22:26
Commentary on Job 22:21-30
(Read Job 22:21-30)
The answer of Eliphaz wrongly implied that Job had hitherto not known God, and that prosperity in this life would follow his sincere conversion. The counsel Eliphaz here gives is good, though, as to Job, it was built upon a false supposition that he was a stranger and enemy to God. Let us beware of slandering our brethren; and if it be our lot to suffer in this manner, let us remember how Job was treated; yea, how Jesus was reviled, that we may be patient. Let us examine whether there may not be some colour for the slander, and walk watchfully, so as to be clear of all appearances of evil.
