Commentaire sur Job 3:21
הַֽמְחַכִּ֣ים לַמָּ֣וֶת וְאֵינֶ֑נּוּ וַֽ֝יַּחְפְּרֻ֗הוּ מִמַּטְמוֹנִֽים׃
qui appellent de leurs vœux la mort, qui les fuit, et la cherchent plus avidement que des trésors,
Rashi on Job
Who await death to those of bitter spirit, who long for and desire death and complain, saying, “it is not here.”

Malbim on Job
Malbim pictures the irony of the desperate and destitute man, who spends his entire life longing for the release of death, and who, upon discovering buried treasure in his old age, is buried alive when the walls of the pit in which he found the treasure cave in on him. Such is the caprice of destiny.
