“Because thou shalt forget thy misery, and remember it as waters that pass away:”
Zophar promises that Job would forget his trouble and would remember it as waters that have passed away, suggesting that suffering would be left behind like a flood that has receded. The image of waters passing away represents the temporary and transient character of suffering. The promise implies that once the moral reformation occurs, suffering will be forgotten.
