Contextual Overview

16 If thou nowe haue vnderstanding, heare what I say, and hearken to the voyce of my wordes: 17 May he be a ruler that loueth not right? or may he that is a very innocent man do vngodly? 18 Is it reason that thou shouldest say to the king, Thou art wicked, or thou art vngodly, and that before the princes? 19 God hath no respect vnto the persons of the lordly, and regardeth not the riche more then the poore: for they be al the worke of his handes. 20 In the twinckling of an eye shall they dye, and at midnight when the people and the tirantes rage, then shall they perishe, & be taken away without handes. 21 For his eyes loke vpon the wayes of man, and he seeth all his goinges. 22 There is no darkenesse nor shadowe of death that can hide the wicked doers from him. 23 For God wil not lay vpon man more then he hath sinned, that he should enter into iudgement with him. 24 He shall destroy the mightie without seeking, and shall set other in their steede. 25 Therefore shall he declare their workes: he shall turne the night, and they shalbe destroyed.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

[How much less to him] that accepteth not the persons of princes,.... And indeed God is not the respecter of the persons of any, no, not of the greatest men on earth, kings and princes,

Acts 10:34; these are alike dealt with by him as others in the dispensations of his providence; nor do they escape the marks of his displeasure, wrath and vengeance, when they sin against him:

nor regardeth the rich more than the poor? by showing favour to them, or conniving at them,

for they [are] all the work of his hands; both the rich and the poor; not only as creatures made by him, but as rich men and poor men; it is God that makes men rich or poor, 1 Samuel 2:7; instances follow proving this, that God is no respecter of persons on account of outward circumstances.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

How much less to him that accepteth not the person of princes - To accept the person of anyone is to treat him with special favor on account of his rank, his wealth, or from favoritism and partiality. This God often disclaims in respect to himself; (compare Galatians 2:6; Acts 10:34; 2 Chronicles 19:7; Romans 2:11; Ephesians 6:9; Colossians 3:25), and solemnly forbids it in others; see James 2:1, James 2:3,James 2:9; Leviticus 19:15; Deuteronomy 1:17; Deuteronomy 16:19. The meaning here is, that God is entirely impartial in his administration, and treats all as they ought to be treated. He shows favor to no one on account of wealth, rank, talent, office, or joyous apparel, and he excludes no one from favor on account of poverty, ignorance, or a humble rank in life. This it seems was an admitted sentiment in the time of Elihu, and on the ground of the fact that it was indisputable, he strongly argues the impropriety of calling in question the equity of his administration in language such as that which Job had used.

For they all are the work of his hands - He regards them all as his creatures. No one has any special claim on him on account of rank, talent, or wealth. Every creature that he has made, high and low, rich and poor, bond and free, may expect that impartial justice will be done him, and that his external circumstances will not control or modify the divine determinations in regard to him, or the divine dealings toward him.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Job 34:19. That accepteth not — If it be utterly improper to speak against a king or civil governor, how much more so to speak disrespectfully of God, who is not influenced by human caprices or considerations, and who regards the rich and the poor alike, being equally his creatures, and equally dependent on his providence and mercy for their support and salvation.
