The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger,.... According to Apollinarius,
"the needy rich, whom famine presses;''
see
Job 4:10
;
but they that seek the Lord; by prayer, diligently, with their whole heart, and in the sincerity of their souls; the Targum is, "that seek the doctrine of the Lord"; that seek instruction from him, and to be taught by him: these
shall not want any good thing: which God has purposed to bestow upon them, which he has promised unto them, and provided for them; nor any thing that shall be for their good.
