The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness.
Ver. 3. The Lord will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing] Whether through sickness of body, as Isaiah 38:2, or sorrow of heart; for in such case also men cast themselves upon their beds, 1 Kings 21:4. This God, and not the physicians, will do for the sick man, die septimo, on the seventh day, saith R. Solomon, when he is at sickest.
Thou wilt make all his bed] Heb. Thou wilt turn, thou wilt stir up feathers under him, that he may lie at ease; and this by the hand of those poor whom he had considered. Or, Thou wilt turn all his bed, that is, his whole body, from sickness to health, as Kabvenaki senseth it.
