Contextual Overview

13 Prepare your heart to serve only God. Lift your arms and pray to him. 14 Put away the sin that you still hold on to. Don't keep evil in your tent. 15 If you will do that, you could look to God without shame. You can stand strong and not be afraid. 16 Then you can forget your troubles, like water that has already passed by. 17 Your life will be brighter than the sunshine at noon. Life's darkest hours will shine like the morning sun. 18 You will feel safe because there is hope. God will protect you and give you rest. 19 You will lie down without fear of anyone. Many people will come to you for help. 20 Evil people might look for help, but they will not escape their troubles. Their hope leads only to death."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Also thou shall lie down, and none shall make [thee] afraid,.... Either lie down on his bed, as before, or by his flocks, and where they lie down, and none should disturb him or them; not thieves and robbers, such as the Chaldeans and Sabeans had been to him, nor lions, bears, and wolves;

yea, many shall make suit unto thee; make their supplications, present their requests and petitions for relief under necessitous circumstances, or for protection from the injuries and insults of others; as the poor and needy, the widow and fatherless, had done to him in times past, when in his prosperity, and when he was a friend unto them, and the father of them; see Proverbs 19:6; or, "the great ones z shall make suit to thee"; to have his favour and friendship, his counsel and advice, his company and conversation; he should be applied unto and courted by men of all sorts, which would be no small honour to him; see Psalms 45:12.

z רבים "magnates", Vatablus, Bolducius.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Many shall make suit unto thee - Many shall come in a suppliant manner to ask counsel and advice. The meaning is, that he would be a man of distinction, to whom many would look for counsel. This was evidently an honor highly valued in the East, and one on which Job had formerly pridcd himself; see Job 29:7-13.
