job 3:26 I was not in safety, neither had I rest, neither was I quiet; yet trouble came.

job 3:26 "I am not at ease, nor am I quiet, And I am not at rest, but turmoil comes."

26. I was not in safety . . . yet trouble came--referring, not to his former state, but to the beginning of his troubles. From that time I had no rest, there was no intermission of sorrows. "And" (not, "yet") a fresh trouble is coming, namely, my friends' suspicion of my being a hypocrite. This gives the starting-point to the whole ensuing controversy.

job 3:26 "I am not at ease, nor am I quiet, And I am not at rest, but turmoil comes."
