John Trapp on Job 11:19

Verſe 19. Thou ſhalt lie down, and none ſhall make thee afraid] Thou ſhalt walk about the world like a conquerour, being ever under a double guard, the Peace of God within thee, Philip. 4.7. and the Power of God without thee 1 Pet. 1.5. neither ſhall any enemy come upon thee in the night to fright and to diſturb thee, which is a great mercy. It is not long ſince we of this Nation did eat the bread of our ſouls in peril of our lives, neither could we reſt in our beds for the ſound of the trumpet, the alarm of warre: Destruction upon deſtruction was cryed &c. Jer. 4.19, 20. Should this ever be forgotten?

Yea, many ſhall make ſuit unto thee] Heb. Shall intreat thy face: yea, they ſhall tire thee out with their intreaties. Many ſeek the Rulers favour, Prov. 29.26. he is even thronged with ſuitors, ſo that he cannot be without a Maſter of Requeſts. Hence the Poet Orpheus faineth that Litae or Supplications and Petitions are Joves daughters: [non-Latin text not transcribed] Orph. in Arg. and that they are ever attending at his throne. Here then Zophar promiſeth Job, that upon his return to God he ſhall be as great a man as ever; and that many, yea, that his very enemies ſhall not only not moleſt him, but fear his power,Jer. 30.17. and beg his favour. And whereas once it was, this is Job whom no man feeketh, after, then the rich among the people ſhall intreat thy favour, Pſalm 45.12. and all that deſpiſed thee ſhall bow themſelves down at the foals of thy ſeet, Iſai 60.14. See Iſai 45.14. Rev. 3.9. Prov. 19.6. Lo this is the honour God putteth upon holineſſe, Holy and reverend is his name; and therefore reverend becauſe holy: ſo alſo is ours,Pſalm 111.9. Iſai. 43.4. Howbeit we have cauſe to complain, that in theſe laſt and worſt times,Omnes quodammodo mali eſſe coguntur, ne viles habeantur. Sal. lib 4. as the Turks count all fools to be Saints, ſo men with us account all Saints to be fools; and not a few turn to unholineſſe, leſt they ſhould be deſpiſed.
