Job 20
1. Zophar shows the state and portion of the wicked














(11) His bones are full of the sin of his youth.--Rather, of his youth, or youthful vigour, as in Job 33:25 : "He shall return to the days of his youth," and Psalm 89:46 : "The days of his youth hast thou shortened." "Though he is in the full vigour of life, yet it shall lie down with him in the dust."

Verse 11. - His bones are full of the sin of his youth; literally, his bones are full of his youth; i.e. lusty and strong, full of youthful vigour. There is no sign of weakness or decay about them. Yet they shall lie down with him in the dust. A little while, and these vigorous bones, this entire body, so full of life and youth, shall be lying with the man himself, with all that constitutes his personality, in the dust of death (comp. vers. 24, 25).
