Job 21:29

“Have ye not asked them that go by the way? etc.] Did you not ask every traveller you met with on the road the above question? not which was the way to Job’s house, which they knew very well, but in what condition that and his sons were? or what was the case of him and his family? and what was his character? or what was thought of him now since his unhappy circumstances? and do ye not know their tokens? by which it might be known in what a plight he and his family were, and what were the marks, signs, and characters they gave of him: “have ye not asked?” etc. the sense seems to be this, that if they had not asked, they might and should have asked of travellers the above things relating to…”
