Context of Job 18:19
17The remembrance of him shall perish from the earth, and he shall have no name in the street. 18He shall be driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world. He shall neither have son nor nephew among his people, nor any remaining in his dwellings. 20They that come after him shall be appalled at his day, as they that went before were seized with horror. 21Surely such are the dwellings of the wicked, and this is the place of him that knoweth not God.
