Association with evildoers · dominant
In Job 34:8, the feminine singular absolute noun occurs in a question about a person who keeps company with evildoers and walks with wicked men; the clause presents the association as companionship marked by those associates.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Job 34:8 the APB renders the surrounding clause as “who keeps company with evildoers and walks with wicked men?” Its exact English contribution cannot be isolated beyond this association setting.
