Job 5:4

His children Whose greatness he designed in all his enterprises, supposing his family would be established for ever; are far from safety Are exposed to dangers and calamities, and can neither preserve themselves, nor the inheritance which their fathers left them. There is no question but he glances here at the death of Job's children; and they are crushed in the gate That is, in the place of judicature, to which they are brought for their offences, and where they find severe judges, and few or no friends; because, being wickedly educated, and trusting to their own greatness, they had been insolent and injurious to all their neighbours; as also because those many persons, whom their powerful fathers had defrauded or oppressed, seek for justice and the recovery of their rights, which they easily obtain, against persons who plainly declared, by their actions, that they neither feared God nor regarded man, and therefore were hated by all sorts of people. Neither is there any to deliver them They can find no advocates or assistants who are either able or willing to help them: for, as their hand was formerly against every man, so now every man's hand is against them. Justice, therefore, takes hold on them, and will not let them escape.
