Yea, the Almighty shall be thy defence, and thou shalt have plenty of silver.
Apodosis.
Yea - rather, Then shall the Almighty be, etc.
Defence - rather, as the same Hebrew х betser (H1220)] means in Job 22:24 (see note), thy precious metals; God will be to thee in the place of riches.
Plenty of silver - rather, 'and shall be to thee in the place of laboriously obtained treasures of silver.' х tow`aapowt (H8443), from yaa`eep (H3287), worn out with labour.] (Gesenius.) Elegantly implying, it is less labour to find God than the hidden metals; at least to the humble seeker (Job 28:12-28). But Maurer, has 'the shining silver'-literally, 'silver of splendours.'
