translationNotes
- Job continues speaking to his friends.
- Why do the wicked continue to live, become old, and grow mighty in power? - Job uses a question to introduce his speech and to cause his friends to think deeply about what he says. AT: "The wicked person indeed continues to live, becomes old, and becomes wealthier."
- their offspring are established before their eyes - This means the same as the first part of the sentence. The wicked person gets to watch his descendants grow strong and wealthy. (See: :en:ta:vol2:translate:figs_parallelism and :en:ta:vol2:translate:figs_metonymy)
- Their houses - AT: "Their families"
- rod of God - This refers to God's punishment.
