Job 22:20

Whereas our substance is not cut down -Margin, or, “Estate” Gesenius supposes that this means our adversary or enemy. The word used here (קיםqı̂ym) he regards as derived fromקוּםqûm- to rise, to rise up; and, hence, it may have the sense of rising up against, or an enemy.

According to this, it is the language of the righteousJob 22:19when exciting over the punishment of the wicked, saying, “Our foe is cut down.” Jerome renders it, Nonne succisa est erectio eorum, etc.
