Job 20:25

It is drawn Rather, he draweth it forth that is, the arrow (Job 20:24).

the glistering sword Rather, the glittering shaft (Isaiah 49:2), or, more generally, the glittering steel; what is meant is the arrow that strikes the sinner through (Job 20:24). He draws it out hoping to save himself, not knowing that he is mortally stricken, but with the drawing of it out there fall on him the terrors of death. The picture, particularly the last isolated sentence "terrors are upon him," is graphic.
