Job36:8
Verſe 8. And if they be bound in fetters] If it ſo fall out, that through abuſe of their proſperity and preferment, they wander as they are men, out of the right way, and God ſends out afflictions as his Purſuivants to attach them, and ſay them in cold irons for their correction, and to prevent judgement, Pſal. 107.10.
And be holden in cords of affliction] Or, Poverty; ſo that irretiti funibus miſerè vixerint (as the Tigurines here tranſlate) they have onely priſoners pittances, which will neither keep them alive, nor ſuffer them to dye.
