Contextual Overview

21 Therefore reconcile thee vnto God, and be at peace: so shall all thinges prospere with thee right well. 22 Receaue I pray thee the lawe at his mouth, and lay vp his wordes in thyne heart. 23 For if thou wilt turne to the almightie, thou shalt be buyld vp, and put all vnrighteousnes from thy dwelling. 24 Thou shalt lay vp golde [as plentyful] as the dust, and the golde of Ophir as the flyntes of the riuers. 25 Yea almightie God his owne selfe shalbe thy defence, and thou shalt haue plentie of siluer. 26 Then shalt thou haue thy delite in the almightie, and lift vp thy face vnto God. 27 Then shalt thou make thy prayer vnto him, and he shall heare thee, and thou shalt kepe thy promises. 28 Thou shalt also decree a thing, and he shall establishe it vnto thee, and the light shall shine in thy wayes. 29 When [the wicked] be cast downe, thou shalt say, I am lifted vp: and God shall saue the humble person. 30 The innocent shal deliuer the Ilande: it shalbe preserued by the purenesse of thyne handes.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

If thou return to the Almighty,.... Which supposes a departure from him; and that is by sinning against him, which should be repented of, confessed, and pardoning grace and mercy be implored, by all those that have backslidden, and return to God; to which they are encouraged by his being the "Almighty", who has power to forgive sins, also to cause all grace to abound, and to save to the uttermost; he is not a God that is prayed and returned to, that cannot save, or whose hand is shortened, or his ear heavy; the word is "shaddai", which signifies "[who is] sufficient", all sufficient; whose grace is sufficient to restore and receive backsliders, pardon their sins, accept their persons, supply their wants, and preserve them safe to his kingdom and glory:

thou shalt be built up; restored to his former happiness, have all his breaches repaired and made up; his body, which was like a building out of repair and dropping down, become hale and healthful; his family, which was in a ruinous condition, being deprived of his children as well as substance, be increasing again through a like number of children; by which means families are built up, Ruth 4:16; and by having a large affluence of good things, abundantly greater than he had before; and also, in a spiritual sense, be edified and built up in his soul, through the light of God's countenance, the discoveries of his love, the comforts of his spirit, an application of precious promises, and divine truths, and a communication of grace, and the blessings of it:

thou shall put away iniquity far from thy tabernacle; not commit it himself, nor connive at it in others, nor suffer it in his family, suggesting as if he had so done in times past; or remove men of iniquity, wicked men, from his house, and not allow them to dwell there; though rather this seems to be spoken of by way of promise, and as an encouragement to return to the Almighty; upon which all evils and calamities, the effects of sin and iniquity, should be removed from his house, and the apartments of it, they were now full of.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

If thou return to the Almighty - Assuming that he was an impenitent sinner, and wholly unreconciled to him.

Thou shalt be built up - A figure taken from building up a house, in contradistinction from pulling one down, and denoting that he would be prospered and happy.

Thou shalt put away iniquity - Rosenmuller, Good, Noyes, and Wemyss, suppose correctly, as it seems to me, that the word “if” is to be understood here to complete the sense - “if thou shalt put away iniquity.”

From thy tabernacle - From thy tent, or dwelling.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Job 22:23. Thou shalt be built up — God will restore thee to thy wonted state of prosperity; and thou shalt again have a household, not only of servants, but of children also. So much may be Implied in the words, Thou shalt be BUILT UP. See my sermon on Job 22:21-23.
