Eliphaz states that those who plow iniquity and sow trouble reap those same evils, articulating a fundamental law of moral causation: action and consequence are directly linked, and evil action generates evil outcomes. This doctrine of exact retribution assumes a moral universe governed by strict causality, where nothing is arbitrary and all suffering has a moral explanation. The assertion leaves no room for innocent suffering.
