JOB. Chap. 34. Vers. 29. When he giveth quietness, who can make trouble? and when he hideth his face, who then can behold him? whether it be done against a Nation, or against a man only.
This verse is an argument or proof of what Elihu affirmed in the former, that, God heareth the cry of the poor: He doubtless heareth the cry of the poor, when he stops or takes away the cry of the poor, when he sets the poor in a quiet state, or settles them in peace, in such a peace, as their proud and wrathful oppressors shall not be able to disturb. Thus the Lord dealeth graciously in reference both so persons, and Nations, that cry unto him; and that's an undeniable argument, that he heareth their cry, the cry of distressed persons, the cry of distressed Nations.
