Job 17:9
Douay-Rheims
And the just man shall hold on his way, and he that hath clean hands shall be stronger and stronger.
Jamieson, Fausset & Brown
The strength of religious principle is heightened by misfortune. The pious shall take fresh courage to persevere from the example of suffering Job. The image is from a warrior acquiring new courage in action (Isa 40:30-31; Phi 1:14).
