Job31:16
16. If I have withheld the poor from their desire , or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail :
i. e. Denied them what they desired of me either in justice or from necessity: For he was not obliged to grant their vain or inordinate desires.
To wit, with tedious expectation of my justice or charity. I durst neither deny nor delay my help when they required and needed it.
