5 Look at me and be appalled; clap your hand over your mouth.
5 Mark
5 Look at me and be appalled, and lay your hand over your mouth.
5 Take a good look at me. Aren't you appalled by what's happened? No! Don't say anything. I can do without your comments.
5 Look at me and be astonished; Put your hand over your mouth.
5 Look at me and be stunned. Put your hand over your mouth in shock.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Job 21:5
Commentary on Job 21:1-6
(Read Job 21:1-6)
Job comes closer to the question in dispute. This was, Whether outward prosperity is a mark of the true church, and the true members of it, so that ruin of a man's prosperity proves him a hypocrite? This they asserted, but Job denied. If they looked upon him, they might see misery enough to demand compassion, and their bold interpretations of this mysterious providence should be turned into silent wonder.
