“For I know that thou wilt bring me to death, and to the house appointed for all living.”
For I know that you will bring me to death and to the house appointed for all the living, asserting Job's conviction that God intends Job's death, suggesting that divine persecution will culminate in Job's demise. The knowledge of being brought to death suggests certainty about God's intent. The house appointed for all the living—death or Sheol—represents the finality of Job's expectation. The verse suggests that Job anticipates death as the inevitable outcome of divine persecution.
