Job 21:11

21:11 They allow their children to run ¹  like a flock;

their little ones dance about.

Job 41:16

41:16 each one is so close to the next ² 

that no air can come between them.

[21:11]  ¹ tn The verb שָׁלַח (shalakh) means “to send forth,” but in the Piel “to release; to allow to run free.” The picture of children frolicking in the fields and singing and dancing is symbolic of peaceful, prosperous times.

[41:16]  ² tn The expression “each one…to the next” is literally “one with one.”
