Job 18:14 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

His confidence, i.e. all the matter of his confidence, his riches, children, &c. Out of his tabernacle, i.e. out of his habitation. It shall bring him, to wit, the loss of his confidence. To the king of terrors; either,

1. Into extreme fears and horrors of mind. Or,

2. To death, which even Aristotle called the most terrible of all terribles. And this it will do, either because it will expose him to his enemies, who will kill him; or because the sense of his disappointments, and losses, and dangers will oppress his spirits, and break his heart.

Job 18:14

14 His confidence shall be rooted out of his tabernacle, and it shall bring him to the king of terrors.
