Giobbe 31:30

30 Io che non pure ho recato il mio palato a peccare, Per chieder la sua morte con maledizione;

Giobbe 31:30 Meaning and Commentary

Job 31:30

Neither have I suffered my mouth to sin
Which, as it is the instrument of speech, is often the means of much sin; particularly of cursing men, and expressing much bitterness against enemies; but Job laid an embargo upon it, kept it as with a bridle, restrained it from uttering any evil, or wishing any to his worst adversaries; which is difficult to do, when provocations are given, as follows:

by wishing a curse to his soul;
not to his soul as distinct from his body, being the superior excellency and immortal part; that it be everlastingly damned, as wicked men wish to their own souls, and the souls of others, but to his person, wishing some calamity might befall him, some disease seize upon him, or that God would take him away by death: Job would never suffer himself to wish anything of this kind unto his enemy.

Giobbe 31:30 In-Context

28 Questa ancora è una iniquità da giudici; Conciossiachè io avrei rinnegato l’Iddio disopra.

29 Se mi son rallegrato della calamità del mio nemico, Se mi son commosso di allegrezza, quando male gli era sopraggiunto,

30 Io che non pure ho recato il mio palato a peccare, Per chieder la sua morte con maledizione;

31 Se la gente del mio tabernacolo non ha detto: Chi ci darà della sua carne? Noi non ce ne potremmo giammai satollare….

32 Il forestiere non è restato la notte in su la strada; Io ho aperto il mio uscio al viandante.
