1Vers. 32. It shall be accomplished before his time: What shall be accomplished? There is no express Antecedent in the Hebrew; we may understand, either first, the life of the wicked man himself, of whom Eliphaz had before discoursed. Or secondly,2 the estate of the wicked man. Or thirdly, the designs and plots of the wicked man. Taking in all three, the meaning is, That himself, and all that he hath gotten, and all that he hath projected, Shall be accomplished before his time; and what's this but vanity for his recompense?
