Holy Scripture

Job 11:17

A church father on this verse
“And the noonday splendour shall rise to thee at eventide. For 'the noonday splendour at eventide' is the renewing of virtue in the season of temptation, that the soul should be reinvigorated by the sudden heat of charity, which but now was full of fear, that the light of grace had sunk to it.”
Gregory the Dialogist, 7th c. — Morals on the Book of Job, Book X

15For thus shall thy countenance shine again, as pure water; And thou shalt divest thyself of uncleanness, and shalt not fear.

16And thou shalt forget trouble, As a wave that has passed by; and thou shalt not be scared.

— Job 11:17 —

18And thou shalt be confident, because thou hast hope; And peace shall dawn to thee from out of anxiety and care.

19For thou shalt be at ease, and there shall be no one to fight against thee; And many shall charge, and make supplication to thee.
