This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
They - namely, my hopes shall be buried with me.
bars - (Isa 38:10). Rather, the wastes or solitudes of the pit (sheol, the unseen world).
rest together - the rest of me and my hope is in, etc. Both expire together. The word “rest” implies that man’s ceaseless hopes only rob him of rest.
