1 Respuesta de Job: 2 «¡Tú sí que ayudas al débil! ¡Cómo me has animado en mi gran necesidad! 3 ¡Cómo has instruido mi ignorancia! ¡Qué magnífica sabiduría has expresado! 4 ¿Cómo se te han ocurrido esos admirables comentarios?». 5 «Desnudos y temblorosos se presentan los muertos ante Dios en el sitio adonde van. 7 Dios extiende el cielo sobre el espacio vacío, y cuelga la tierra de la nada. 8 Envuelve la lluvia en sus densas nubes, y las nubes no se rompen con ese peso. 9 Oculta su trono entre cortinas de nubes. 10 Pone límite al océano; sí, y limita el día y la noche. 11 Las columnas del cielo tiemblan cuando él reprende. 12 Y por su poder se calma el mar. Él es diestro en aplastar el orgullo de las aguas. 13 Embellece los cielos con su espíritu; clava a la serpiente que huye veloz. 14 Estas son algunas de sus obras más insignificantes; no más que un murmullo de su poder. ¿Quién podrá entonces resistir ante su trueno?».

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 26:8 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture IX)

    Whereof in Job it saith, And He knoweth the separations of the clouds, and hath bent down the heaven to the earth: and, He who numbereth the clouds in wisdom: and, the cloud is not rent under Him.
