Tafsiran Ayub 2:9: Rashi & Malbim

וַתֹּ֤אמֶר לוֹ֙ אִשְׁתּ֔וֹ עֹדְךָ֖ מַחֲזִ֣יק בְּתֻמָּתֶ֑ךָ בָּרֵ֥ךְ אֱלֹהִ֖ים וָמֻֽת׃

Lalu istrinya berkata kepadanya, “Masih jugakah engkau berpegang teguh pada ketulusanmu? Hujatlah Allah, lalu matilah!”

Malbim

After losing all his possessions and children, Job had still blessed God. But he now just remains silent. This time, he could not bring himself to do so. His wife taunts him: Are you still resolved to be perfect? Bless God once more again and you'll be dead!

Rashi

and die Heb. ומת. This is an imperative expression, as (Deut. 32: 50), “And die on the mountain.”
