John Trapp on Job 17:8

Verſe 8. Ʋpright men ſhall be a ſtonied at this] They ſhall ſilently admire and adore the fathomleſſe depth of the divine adminiſtration, when they ſee a man ſo upright to ſuffer ſuch heavy preſſures: yet ſhall they not cenſure me as you do, not condemn me for complaining, ſith there is a cauſe. They cannot indeed ſee far into Gods ſecret intentions, they do therefore mirari rather then rimari, like as the old Romanes dedicated unto Victory a certain Lake, the depth whereof they could not fathom.

And the innocent ſhall ſtir up himſelf againſt the hypocrite] He ſhall learn of me, not to be baffled out of his ſincerity; to be mocked out of his integrity, but to maintain and take comfort therein againſt all his falſe Accuſers. Oppoſition doth not weaken, but waken Heroick Spirits, 2 Sam. 6.21, 22. They proceed ſo much the more vigorouſly in the wayes of Holineſs; like as Lime burns the more for the cold water caſt upon it, and as the Palm-tree, which although it have many weights at the top, and many ſnakes at the bottome, yet it ſtirreth up it ſelfe, and flouriſheth, taking for its Poſie, Nee premor, nec perimor. Nothing hurteth or hindreth me.
