Job18:11
11. Terrors--often mentioned in this book (Job 18:14; 24:17; &c.). The terrors excited through an evil conscience are here personified. "Magor-missabib" (Jr 20:3).
drive ... to his feet--rather, "shall pursue" (literally, "scatter," Ha 3:14) him close "at his heels" (literally, "immediately after his feet," Ha 3:5; 1Sa 25:42; Hebrew). The image is that of a pursuing conqueror who scatters the enemy [Umbreit].
