The way to have a good night is to sleep with a good conscience; and the sleep, as of the labouring man, so of the wise and godly man, <span class="ital">is sweet. Be not afraid — </span>That is, thou shalt not be afraid. For that it is a promise seems most probable from the context; only, for greater emphasis, it is delivered in the form of a precept; as if he had said, <span class="ital">I require thee not to be afraid; </span>it is both thy duty and privilege; <span class="ital">of sudden fear — </span>For sudden and unexpected evils are most frightful and grievous; and <span class="ital">fear </span>is here put for the evils feared. <span class="ital">Neither of the desolation of the wicked — </span>Which befalls them, <span class="ital">when the Lord cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity; </span>and thou mayest be ready to fear, lest thou shouldst be involved in the common calamity; but fear not, for God will then hide thee in his chambers, <a href="/context/isaiah/26-20.htm" title="Come, my people, enter you into your chambers, and shut your doors about you: hide yourself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be over....">Isaiah 26:20-21</a>. <span class="ital">For the Lord shall be thy confidence — </span>A sufficient and sure ground of confidence; <span class="ital">and shall keep thy foot from being taken — </span>In the snares either of sin or of mischief.<span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a name="mhc" id="mhc"></a><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/mhc/proverbs/3.htm">Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary</a></div>3:21-26 Let us not suffer Christ's words to depart from us, but keep sound wisdom and discretion; then shall we walk safely in his ways.

No fear is to be apprehended where Jehovah is Protector (see <a href="/psalms/3-5.htm">Psalm 3:5, 6</a>; <a href="/psalms/46-1.htm">Psalm 46:1-3</a>; <a href="/psalms/91-1.htm">Psalm 91:1-5</a>; <a href="/psalms/121-5.htm">Psalm 121:5-8</a>). <span class="accented">When</span>, (<span class="accented">im</span>) is rendered "if" by the Vulgate, LXX., Targum Jonathan. <span class="accented">Thou liest down</span>; <span class="accented">tish'kav</span>, "thou shalt lie down," kal future, like <span class="accented">shakavta</span>, kal perfect, in the corresponding hemistich, is from <span class="accented">shakav</span>, "to lie down," specially to lay one's self down to sleep, as in <a href="/genesis/19-4.htm">Genesis 19:4</a>; <a href="/psalms/3-6.htm">Psalm 3:6</a>. Vulgate, <span class="accented">si dormieris</span>; cf. <a href="/proverbs/6-22.htm">Proverbs 6:22</a>, "when thou sleepest" <span class="hebrew">בְּשָׁכְבְּך</span>, <span class="accented">b'shok'b'ka</span>). The LXX. rendering, "if thou sittest" (<span class="greek">κάθη</span>), arises from reading <span class="hebrew">תֵּשֵׁב</span> (<span class="accented">teshev</span>) for <span class="hebrew">תִּשְׁכַב</span> (<span class="accented">tish'kav</span>) <span class="accented"><span class="cmt_word"></span>Yea, thou shalt lie down;</span> <span class="accented">b'shok'b'ta</span>, as before, with] prefixed, equivalent to the future, as in the Authorized Version; LXX., <span class="greek">καθεύδῃς</span>. <span class="cmt_word">Shall be sweet</span>; <span class="accented">arvah</span>, from <span class="accented">arav</span>, "to be sweet," or "pleasant," perhaps "well mixed," as <span class="accented">arev</span>, equivalent to "to mix." Thy sleep shall be full of pleasing impressions, not restless, as in <a href="/deuteronomy/28-66.htm">Deuteronomy 28:66</a> and <a href="/job/7-4.htm">Job 7:4</a>, but sweet, because of the sense of safety, and from confidence in God, as well as from a good conscience (cf. <a href="/job/11-18.htm">Job 11:18</a>, "Thou shalt take thy rest in safety," from which the idea is probably taken). Proverbs 3:24<a name="kad" id="kad"></a><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/kad/proverbs/3.htm">Keil and Delitzsch Biblical Commentary on the Old Testament</a></div>But more than this, wisdom makes its possessor in all situations of life confident in God:<p>23 Then shalt thou go thy way with confidence,<p>     And thy foot shall not stumble.<p>24 When thou liest down, thou are not afraid,<p>     But thou layest thyself down and hast sweet sleep.<p>25 Thou needest not be afraid of sudden alarm,<p>     Nor for the storm of the wicked when it breaketh forth.<p>26 For Jahve will be thy confidence<p>     And keep thy foot from the snare.<p>The לבטח (cf. our "bei guter Laune" equals in good cheer), with ל of the condition, is of the same meaning as the conditional adverbial accusative בּטח, <a href="/proverbs/10-9.htm">Proverbs 10:9</a>; <a href="/proverbs/1-33.htm">Proverbs 1:33</a>. <a href="/proverbs/3-23.htm">Proverbs 3:23</a> the lxx translate ὁ δὲ πούς σου οὐ μὴ προσκόψῃ, while, on the contrary, at <a href="/psalms/91-12.htm">Psalm 91:12</a> they make the person the subject (μήποτε προσκόψῃς τὸν κ.τ.λ.); here also we retain more surely the subject from 23a, especially since for the intrans. of נגף (to smite, to push) a Hithpa. התנגּף is used <a href="/jeremiah/13-16.htm">Jeremiah 13:16</a>. In <a href="/proverbs/3-24.htm">Proverbs 3:24</a> there is the echo of <a href="http://biblehub.com/job/11-18.htm">Job 11:18</a>, and in <a href="/proverbs/3-25.htm">Proverbs 3:25</a> of <a href="/job/5-21.htm">Job 5:21</a>. <a href="/proverbs/3-24.htm">Proverbs 3:24</a> is altogether the same as <a href="/job/5-24.htm">Job 5:24</a> : et decumbes et suavis erit somnus tuus equals si decubueris, suavis erit. The hypothetic perf., according to the sense, is both there and at <a href="/job/11-18.htm">Job 11:18</a> (cf. <a href="/jeremiah/20-9.htm">Jeremiah 20:9</a>) oxytoned as perf. consec. Similar examples are <a href="/proverbs/6-22.htm">Proverbs 6:22</a>; <a href="/genesis/33-13.htm">Genesis 33:13</a>; <a href="http://biblehub.com/1_samuel/25-31.htm">1 Samuel 25:31</a>, cf. Ewald, 357a. ערבה (of sleep as <a href="/jeremiah/31-26.htm">Jeremiah 31:26</a>) is from ערב, which in Hebr. is used of pleasing impressions, as the Arab. ‛ariba of a lively, free disposition. שׁנה, somnus (nom. actionis from ישׁן, with the ground-form sina preserved in the Arab. lidat, vid., Job, p. 284, note), agrees in inflexion with שׁנה, annus. אל, <a href="http://biblehub.com/proverbs/3-25.htm">Proverbs 3:25</a>, denies, like <a href="http://biblehub.com/psalms/121-3.htm">Psalm 121:3</a>, with emphasis: be afraid only not equals thou hast altogether nothing to fear. Schultens rightly says: Subest species prohibitionis et tanquam abominationis, ne tale quicquam vel in suspicionem veniat in mentemve cogitando admittatur. פּחד here means terror, as <a href="/proverbs/1-26.htm">Proverbs 1:26</a>., the terrific object; פּתאם (with the accus. om) is the virtual genitive, as <a href="/proverbs/26-2.htm">Proverbs 26:2</a> חנּם (with accus. am). Regarding שׁאה, see under <a href="/proverbs/1-27.htm">Proverbs 1:27</a>. The genitive רשׁעים may be, after <a href="http://biblehub.com/psalms/37-18.htm">Psalm 37:18</a>, the genit. subjecti, but still it lies nearer to say that he who chooses the wisdom of God as his guiding star has no ground to fear punishment as transgressors have reason to fear it; the שׁאה is meant which wisdom threatens against transgressors, <a href="/proverbs/1-27.htm">Proverbs 1:27</a>. He needs have no fear of it, for wisdom is a gift of God, and binds him who receives it to the giver: Jahve becomes and is henceforth his confidence. Regarding ב essentiae, which expresses the closest connection of the subject with the predicate which it introduces, see under <a href="/psalms/35-2.htm">Psalm 35:2</a>. As here, so also at <a href="/exodus/18-4.htm">Exodus 18:4</a>; <a href="/psalms/118-7.htm">Psalm 118:7</a>; <a href="http://biblehub.com/psalms/146-6.htm">Psalm 146:6</a>, the predicate is a noun with a pronominal suffix. כּסל is, as at <a href="/psalms/78-7.htm">Psalm 78:7</a>; <a href="http://biblehub.com/job/31-24.htm">Job 31:24</a>, cognate to מבטה and מקוה,<p>(Note: According to Malbim, תּקוה is the expectation of good, and כּסל, confidence in the presence of evil.)<p>the object and ground of confidence. That the word in other connections may mean also fool-hardiness, <a href="http://biblehub.com/psalms/49-14.htm">Psalm 49:14</a>, and folly, <a href="/ecclesiastes/7-25.htm">Ecclesiastes 7:25</a> (cf. regarding כּסיל, which in Arab. as belı̂d denotes the dull, in Hebr. fools, see under <a href="/proverbs/1-22.htm">Proverbs 1:22</a>), it follows that it proceeds from the fundamental conception of fulness of flesh and of fat, whence arise the conceptions of dulness and slothfulness, as well as of confidence, whether confidence in self or in God (see Schultens l.c., and Wnsche's Hosea, p. 207f.). לכד is taking, catching, as in a net or trap or pit, from לכד, to catch (cf. Arab. lakida, to fasten, III, IV to hold fast); another root-meaning, in which Arab. lak connects itself with nak, nk, to strike, to assail (whence al-lakdat, the assault against the enemy, Deutsch. Morgenl. Zeitsch. xxii. 140), is foreign to the Hebr. Regarding the מן of מלכד, Fleischer remarks: "The מן after the verbs of guarding, preserving, like שׁמר and נצר, properly expresses that one by those means holds or seeks to hold a person or thing back from something, like the Lat. defendere, tueri aliquem ab hostibus, a perculo."<p>(Note: Hitzig rejects <a href="http://biblehub.com/proverbs/3-22.htm">Proverbs 3:22-26</a> as a later interpolation. And why? Because chap. 3, which he regards as a complete discourse, consists of twice ten verses beginning with בּני. In addition to this symmetry other reasons easily reveal themselves to his penetration. But the discourses contained in chap. 1-9 do not all begin with בני (vid., <a href="/proverbs/1-20.htm">Proverbs 1:20</a>); and when it stands in the beginning of the discourse, it is not always the first word (vid., <a href="/proverbs/1-8.htm">Proverbs 1:8</a>); and when it occurs as the first word or in the first line, it does not always commence a new discourse (vid., <a href="/proverbs/1-15.htm">Proverbs 1:15</a> in the middle of the first, <a href="/proverbs/3-11.htm">Proverbs 3:11</a> in the middle of the fourth); and, moreover, the Hebr. poetry and oratory does not reckon according to verses terminated by Soph Pasuk, which are always accented distichs, but they in reality frequently consist of three or more lines.
