Which were cut down out of time, whose foundation was overflown with a flood:

Cross-reference

Job 15:32 Parallel

Job 15:32 says the wicked are paid in full before their time — identical to being 'snatched away before their time' in Job 22:16.

Job 27:20 Parallel

Job 27:20 uses the same flood imagery for the wicked's terror, but metaphorically rather than referencing the historical flood.

Genesis 7:17-24 describes the actual flood that swept away the wicked, confirming the event Eliphaz alludes to as divine judgment.

Psalm 55:23 Parallel

Psalm 55:23 declares the wicked shall not live half their days — matching the premature death in Job 22:16.

Ecclesiastes 7:17 warns that being overly wicked leads to dying before your time — exactly the fate described in Job 22:16.
