Job 15:24 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Trouble and anguish shall make him afraid When trouble comes, instead of trusting and hoping, and comforting himself in God, as good men do in such cases, 1 Samuel 30:6, he is full of torment, dreading the issue of it, and concluding it will end in his utter ruin, as he has great reason to do. They shall prevail against him Though he would fain shake off his fears, and uses many expedients to free himself from them, he is not able; they overpower him, as a king ready to the battle With forces too strong to be resisted. He that would keep his peace must keep a good conscience.
