Verse 14 is found in chapter 23 of Job. Job recognizes that God is sovereign and that his purposes cannot be altered by human beings, but immediately asks why the times of judgment seem hidden. He describes cases of oppression against the poor, orphans, and needy. The argument expands from his personal suffering to the universal problem of the apparent delay of justice.
