Men shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place.

Verse 23 is found in chapter 27 of Job. Job describes the consequences that may eventually reach the wicked person’s household: loss of descendants, wealth, security, and reputation. The language retains elements of traditional wisdom concerning retribution. Within the book’s structure, this statement should be read alongside his earlier observations that judgment is not always immediate or visible.

Man wird über ihn mit den Händen klatschen und über ihn zischen, wo er gewesen ist.
Batirán sus manos sobre él, Y desde su lugar le silbarán.
Baten palmas contra él y lo echan de su lugar entre silbidos».
On bat des mains à sa chute, Et on le siffle à son départ.
Altri si batterà a palme sopra lui, E ciascuno zuffolerà contro a lui dal suo luogo
Cada um baterá palmas contra ele e assobiará tirando-o do seu lugar.
風要因他拍掌, 並要發叱聲,使他離開原地。」
