Verse 22 is found in chapter 34 of Job. Elihu states that God sees all human ways and can judge even before an action is fully exposed. He criticizes Job for speaking as though he could establish his own righteousness against God. The section intensifies the defense of divine sovereignty, preparing the argument that human knowledge is too limited to judge heavenly government.

Es ist keine Finsternis noch Dunkel, daß sich da möchten verbergen die Übeltäter.
No hay tinieblas ni sombra de muerte Donde se encubran los que obran maldad.
No hay tinieblas ni sombra de muerte donde puedan esconderse los que hacen el mal.
Il n'y a ni ténèbres ni ombre de la mort, Où puissent se cacher ceux qui commettent l'iniquité.
Non vi è oscurità, nè ombra di morte alcuna, Ove si possan nascondere gli operatori d’iniquità.
Não há trevas nem sombra de morte, onde se escondam os que praticam a iniqüidade.
沒有黑暗,沒有死蔭, 能給作惡者在那裏藏身。
