Job 34:8

8. In company Literally, To the company. That Job should have uttered such words (Job 34:5-6) stirs the indignation of Elihu. His zeal for God and the truth leads him, like the friends, into embittered language and unjustifiable assault. His view is in general just, that the language a man speaks betokens the company he keeps. He intimates that the complaints Job makes are merely the sentiments of the utterly godless, though in another guise. Like sentiments lead to like company, and, vice versa, as we see in the following verse, low associations give rise to low ideas. Dr. Clarke thinks there is an allusion here to a caravan, in which all kinds of persons were found.
