The first part of the sentence, rendered, when he giveth quietness, is but one word in the Hebrew, we had it before (chap. 3.13.) where Job supposeth if he had died in his infancy, then should he have been still, and been quiet, he should have slept, and been at rest. The grave is a silent and quiet abiding place, the dead are quitted of all worldly unquietness. And at the 26th verse of the same chapter, Job saith, I was not in safety, neither was I quiet: (that is, secure) yet trouble came. So then, as this word notes, the quietness of the dead who have no sense of trouble, so it notes such a quietness of the living as hath no fear of trouble, When he giveth quietness, or as Master Broughton translates, when he maketh rest, who &c. The Italian version is, if he sendeth home in peace, 1&c. As if it had been said, If he by his sovereign sentence freeth out of slavery and oppression, as he did the children of Israel out of the bondage of Egypt &c. If he commandeth rest and quiet, then, as it followeth, ⟨p. 726⟩Who can make trouble?
