John Trapp on Job 9:12

Verſe 12. Behold he taketh away] Raptim aufert; He ſnatcheth away, or taketh by force, as a Lion doth his prey, or a thief doth another mans goods: Confer Prov. 23.28. Which if he do, who can repel or turn him back? Here Job plainly alludeth to the taking away of his children, ſervants, and cattle, the likelihood alſo of loſing his life (according to the Chaldee paraphraſt) by his preſent miſeries, which if it ſhould befall him from God, it would not be ſafe for him to cavil, or once queſtion Gods proceeding, to urge him to reſtitution, or charge him with oppreſſion; ſith he is chief Lord of all, and may do with his own what he pleaſeth. He is uncontrollable as Nebuchadnezzar at length acknowledged, Dan. 4.35. and his will is the true and only rule of juſtice it ſelf, nec ſolum recta, ſed & regula. Wherefore let all the earth keep ſilence before him, Hab. 2.20. and let none preſume once to ask him what he hath done, either to queſtion his right to do it, or to queſtion his righteouſneſſe in doing of it.
