As if he had said, Once thou didst say, God destroyeth the perfect and the wicked, but now thou seemest to say, thou art greatly wronged, and thy Judgement quite taken away, because being a righteous man thou art thus afflicted.
As if he had sayd, Once thou didst say, God destroyeth the perfect and the wicked, but now thou seemest to say, thou art greatly wrong'd, and thy Judgement quite taken away, because being a righteous man thou art thus afflicted.
Mr Broughton renders, But the Omnipotent keeps back my right. As Judgement is right fully given, so there is but little difference between keeping back our right, and taking it away; 1therefore the word signifieth not only to take away, or cause to decline, to divert and subvert, but to keep back or withhold any thing in any kind, as Mr Broughton translates expressly. This is the thing (saith Elihu) which Job hath said, God hath taken away or kept back my Judgement.
