Job 18:6

The light in his tent will be darkened
and the lamp will be extinguished (disappear – Hebr. daach) for him.
[Darkness is associated with death, see Job 3:5; 10:21; 17:13. The lamp often signifies physical and spiritual life, see Job 21:17; Prov 13:9; 20:20; 24:20; Ps. 18:28. David is called "the light of Israel," see 2 Sam. 21:17. In the temple, the light of the seven-branched candlestick shone all night, see Ex. 25:37.]
