Jó 23:1 Meaning and Commentary

Job 23:1

Then Job answered and said.
] In reply to Eliphaz; for though he does not direct his discourse to him, nor take any notice of his friends; yet, as a proof of his innocence, against his and their accusations and charges, he desires no other than to have his cause laid before God himself, by whom he had no doubt he should be acquitted; and, contrary to their notions, he shows in this chapter, that he, a righteous man, was afflicted by God, according to his unchangeable decrees; and, in the next, that wicked men greatly prosper; so that what he herein says may be considered as a sufficient answer to Eliphaz and his friends; and after which no more is said to him by them, excepting a few words dropped by Bildad.

2 “Até agora me queixo com amargura;a mão dele é pesada, a despeito de meu gemido.

3 Se tão somente eu soubesseonde encontrá-lo e como ir à sua habitação!

4 Eu lhe apresentaria a minha causae encheria a minha boca de argumentos.

5 Estudaria o que ele me respondessee analisaria o que me dissesse.
