When he gives quietness, who then can condemn?
When he hides his face, who then can see him?
He is over a nation or a man alike,
THE SURROUNDING PASSAGE
Job 34:29 in context
Job 34:26–32
26
He strikes them as wicked men
in the open sight of others;
27
because they turned away from following him,
and wouldn’t pay attention to any of his ways,
28
so that they caused the cry of the poor to come to him.
He heard the cry of the afflicted.
29
Selected verse
When he gives quietness, who then can condemn?
When he hides his face, who then can see him?
He is over a nation or a man alike,
30
that the godless man may not reign,
that there be no one to ensnare the people.
31
“For has any said to God,
‘I am guilty, but I will not offend any more.
32
Teach me that which I don’t see.
If I have done iniquity, I will do it no more’?
