Job 24:23
[Though] it be given him [to be] in safety, whereon he resteth; yet his eyes [are] upon their ways.
Though it be given {H5414} him to be in safety {H983}, whereon he resteth {H8172}; yet his eyes {H5869} are upon their ways {H1870}.
However, even if God lets them rest in safety, his eyes are on their ways.
He gives them a sense of security, but His eyes are on their ways.
God giveth them to be in security, and they rest thereon; And his eyes are upon their ways.
