This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





Wilt thou trust him, to wit, for the doing of these works, because he is very able for thy work? And wilt thou by thy power make him willing, or force him, to put forth and spend his strength in thy service?



Thy labour; either,



1. Thy work of ploughing and harrowing. Or rather,



2. The fruit of thy labour, or the goods gotten by thy labour, as this word is oft used, as Deu_28:33 Job_20:18 Psa_78:46 128:2 Joh_4:38, to wit, the fruits of the earth procured by God’s blessing upon thy industry.



To him; to be brought home by him into thy barns, as the next verse explains it.
