“And thou shalt be secure, because there is hope; yea, thou shalt dig about thee, and thou shalt take thy rest in safety.”
Zophar promises that Job would have confidence because there is hope and would look round and lie down in safety, suggesting the restoration of peace and security. The promise of lying down safely evokes the security of the bedchamber, one of humanity's basic needs. The return of confidence represents the psychological and spiritual restoration.
