NET Notes: Job 16:22

¹ tn The expression is “years of number,” meaning that they can be counted, and so “the years are few.” The verb simply means “comes” or “lie ahead.”

² tn The verbal expression “I will not return” serves here to modify the journey that he will take. It is “the road [of] I will not return.”
