Job 30:15 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Terrors are turned upon me Many terrible things from God, who sets himself against me, and in some sort joins his forces with these miscreants, are directed against me, to whom they seem not to belong, as being the portion of wicked men. They pursue my soul Hebrew, נדבתי, nedibathi, my principal, or excellent one; that is, my soul, which is properly so called, as being the chief part of man, and which was the proper seat and object of divine terrors, as his body was of his outward pains and ulcers; as the wind That is, speedily, vehemently, and irresistibly; and my welfare All the happiness and comfort of my life; passeth away as a cloud Which is quickly dissolved into rain, or dissipated by the sun, or driven away with the wind.
