Job3:17
17. [There ] [the wicked cease from troubling: ] and [there the weary be at rest ]
i. e. In the Grave, which though not expressed, yet is clearly implied in the foregoing Verses.
The great oppressours and troublers of the World cease from all those Vexations, Rapines, and Murders, which here they procured.
Those who were here molested and tired out with their Tyrannies, now quietly sleep with them, or by them.
Marginal references: Heb. wearied in strength.
