Job 24:1 (ESV)

1 “Why are not times of judgment kept by the Almighty, and why do those who know him never see his days?

From looking at his own suffering, Job now goes on to look at the suffering in the world. There are many who, like Job, know God and wait for his righteous judgment. Job wishes that God would set times of judgment, during which his followers may expect him to punish evil and reward righteousness.
