Job 5:14 - John Wesley's Notes

Job 5:14

Compare all

12 ^aHe frustrates the devices of the crafty,
So that their hands cannot carry out their plans.

13 He catches the ^awise in their own craftiness,
And the counsel of the cunning comes quickly upon them.

14 They meet with darkness in the daytime,
And grope at noontime as in the night.

15 But ^aHe saves the needy from the sword,
From the mouth of the mighty,
And from their hand.

16 ^aSo the poor have hope,
And injustice shuts her mouth.

Job 5:14

Meet - In plain things they run into gross mistakes, and chuse those courses which are worst for themselves. Darkness often notes misery, but here ignorance or error. Grope - Like blind men to find their way, not knowing what to do.
