Job 37:13


13 Whether it is for punishment,
tn Heb “rod,” i.e., a rod used for punishment.

or for his land,
or for mercy,
he causes it to find its mark.
tn This is interpretive; Heb “he makes find it.” The lightning could be what is intended here, for it finds its mark. But R. Gordis (Job, 429) suggests man is the subject—let him find what it is for, i.e., the fate appropriate for him.
