Commentary for Job 8:18

If one destroys him from his place the one who requites him, and this is an elliptical verse.

then it shall deny him his place [shall deny him].

‘I have not seen you,’ For neither root nor branch shall remain of him, and it will be as though he had never existed, for his fall shall not ascend like the downfall of the righteous—for the righteous will fall and rise, but this one will fall without rising.
