Verse 21 is found in chapter 15 of Job. Eliphaz describes the destiny of the wicked through images of anguish, fear, hunger, and destruction. His portrait functions as a general explanation of moral judgment, but within the dialogue it becomes an indirect accusation. The structure of the argument maintains the retributive logic: visible calamity equals prior wickedness.
