1 A Jov odgovori i reče: 2 Zaista, znam da je tako; jer kako bi mogao čovek biti prav pred Bogom? 3 Ako bi se hteo preti s Njim, ne bi Mu mogao odgovoriti od hiljade na jednu. 4 Mudar je srcem i jak snagom; ko se je opro Njemu i bio srećan? 5 On premešta gore, da niko i ne opazi; prevraća ih u gnevu svom; 6 On kreće zemlju s mesta njenog da joj se stupovi drmaju; 7 On kad zapreti suncu, ne izlazi; On zapečaćava zvezde; 8 On razapinje nebo sam, i gazi po valima morskim; 9 On je načinio zvezde kola i štape i vlašiće i druge jugu u dnu; 10 On čini stvari velike i neispitive i divne, kojima nema broja. 11 Gle, ide mimo mene, a ja ne vidim; prođe, a ja ga ne opazim. 12 Gle, kad uhvati, ko će Ga nagnati da vrati? Ko će Mu kazati: Šta radiš? 13 Bog ne usteže gneva svog, padaju poda Nj oholi pomoćnici. 14 A kako bi Mu ja odgovarao i birao reči protiv Njega? 15 Da sam i prav, neću Mu se odgovoriti, valja da se molim sudiji svom. 16 Da Ga zovem i da mi se odzove, još ne mogu verovati da je čuo glas moj. 17 Jer me je vihorom satro i zadao mi mnogo rana nizašta. 18 Ne da mi da odahnem, nego me siti gorčinama. 19 Ako je na silu, gle, On je najsilniji; ako na sud, ko će mi svedočiti? 20 Da se pravdam, moja će me usta osuditi; da sam dobar, pokazaće da sam nevaljao. 21 Ako sam dobar, neću znati za to; omrzao mi je život moj. 22 Svejedno je; zato rekoh: i dobrog i bezbožnog On potire. 23 Kad bi još ubio bič najedanput! Ali se smeje iskušavanju pravih. 24 Zemlja se daje u ruke bezbožniku; lice sudija njenih zaklanja; ako ne On, da ko? 25 Ali dani moji biše brži od glasnika; pobegoše, ne videše dobra. 26 Prođoše kao brze lađe, kao orao kad leti za hranu. 27 Ako kažem: Zaboraviću tužnjavu svoju, ostaviću gnev svoj i okrepiću se; 28 Strah me je od svih muka mojih, znam da me nećeš opravdati. 29 Biću kriv; zašto bih se mučio uzalud? 30 Da se izmijem vodom snežnicom, i da očistim sapunom ruke svoje, 31 Tada ćeš me zamočiti u jamu da se gade na me moje haljine. 32 Jer nije čovek kao ja da Mu odgovaram, da idem s Njim na sud; 33 Niti ima među nama kmeta da bi stavio ruku svoju među nas dvojicu. 34 Neka odmakne od mene prut svoj, i strah Njegov neka me ne straši; 35 Tada ću govoriti, i neću Ga se bojati; jer ovako ne znam za sebe.

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).
That which a certain scripture says: "The earth was delivered into the hands of the ungodly." The flesh was given into the power of the Jews; and this that thereby the bag, as it were, might be rent asunder, whence our purchase-price might run out.

And this Job said mystically, Which alone spread out the heaven, and walketh upon the sea as on firm ground; signifying to those who understand that He who when present here walked upon the sea is also He who aforetime made the heavens.

"I slept," because "I have power to lay down My life, and I have power to take it again." "I laid Me down and slept, and rose up again." Rage then the Jews; be "the earth given into the hands of the wicked," be the flesh left to the hands of persecutors, let them on wood suspend it, with nails …
