Job13:16

16. He also shall be, or is my Salvation : for an Hypocrite shall not come before him.

I rest assured that he will save me out of these miseries sooner or later, one way or other, if not with a temporal, yet with an eternal Salvation after Death▪ of which he speaks, Ch. 19. 25, &c.

Or, but, as this particle commonly signifies, for this Clause is put by way of opposition to the former, and the sense is▪ But if I were an Hypocrite as you alledge, I durst not present my self before him to plead my Cause with him, as now I desire to do, nor could I hope for any Salvation from, or with, him in Heaven.
