Take two further inferences from the whole verse.
First, Princes, great and rich men must not expect to fare better with God because of their greatness or riches. For,
He doth not regard the rich more then the poor.
Secondly, The meanest man needs not fear that he shall fare the worse before God for his meanness.
The most high God will not overlook those in a low estate, he regardeth the poor as well as the rich; and that's matter of great comfort to the poor, when disregarded by the rich. Though the Lord doth not make all men of an equal respect in the world, 'tis his will that some men should be more regarded by men then others are, yet himself (in the sense opened) beareth an equal respect to them all; He regardeth not the rich more then the poor, for they are all the work of his hands.
