18:15Fire resides in his tent;32
over his residence burning sulfur is scattered.
Footnotes
- 32 This line is difficult as well. The verb, again a third feminine form, says “it dwells in his tent.” But the next part (מִבְּלִי לוֹ, mibbéli lo) means something like “things of what are not his.” The best that can be made of the is “There shall live in his tent they that are not his” (referring to persons and animals; see J. E. Hartley, Job [], ). G. R. Driver and G. B. Gray (Job [], 2:) refer “that which is naught of his” to weeds and wild animals. M. Dahood suggested a reading מַבֶּל (mabbel) and a connection to Akkadian nablu, “fire” (cf. Ugaritic nbl). The interchange of and n is not a problem, and the parallelism with the next line makes good sense (“Some Northwest Semitic words in Job,” 38 [1957]: 312ff.). Others suggest an emendation to get “night-hag” or vampire. This suggestion, as well as Driver’s “mixed herbs,” are linked to the idea of exorcism. But if a change is to be made, Dahood’s is the most compelling.
