Job 36:22-23 in context
20Desire not the night, when people are cut off in their place.
21Take heed, regard not iniquity: for this hast thou chosen rather than affliction.
22Behold, God exalteth by his power: who teacheth like him?

24Remember that thou magnify his work, which men behold.
25Every man may see it; man may behold it afar off.
