Job15:35

35. They conceive mischief , and bring forth vanity , and their belly prepareth deceit .

i. e. They devise and contrive injurious and pernicious Enterprizes against others.

Or iniquity, or injury, or trouble; either 1. to others: They execute what they had contrived. Or 2. to themselves; the mischief they designed for others, falleth upon their own heads, and they reap what they sowed.

i. e. Their inward parts, their hearts and minds. See above on v. 2.

Either 1. for others, whom they design to cheat: Or 2. for themselves, who whilest they seek to deceive others, shall find that they themselves are most deceived, as being deprived of all their desires and hopes wherewith they fed themselves, and cast into all those Calamities, which they thought to prevent by these Artifices.
