Job 11:19 Meaning and Commentary

Job 11:19

Also thou shall lie down, and none shall make [thee] afraid,
&c.] Either lie down on his bed, as before, or by his flocks, and where they lie down, and none should disturb him or them; not thieves and robbers, such as the Chaldeans and Sabeans had been to him, nor lions, bears, and wolves;

Job 11:19 In-Context

17 Y en mitad de la siesta se levantará bonanza; Resplandecerás, y serás como la mañana:

18 Y confiarás, que habrá esperanza; Y cavarás, y dormirás seguro:

19 Y te acostarás, y no habrá quien te espante: Y muchos te rogarán.

20 Mas los ojos de los malos se consumirán, Y no tendrán refugio; Y su esperanza será agonía del alma.
