Job22:21
21. Eliphaz takes it for granted, Job is not yet "acquainted" with God; literally, "become a companion of God." Turn with familiar confidence to God.
and be--So thou shalt be: the second imperatively expresses the consequence of obeying the first (Psa 37:27).
peace--prosperity and restoration to Job; true spiritually also to us (Ro 5:1; Col 1:20).
good--(1Ti 4:8).
