SEV Biblia, Chapter 29:11
cuando los oídos que me oían, me llamaban bienaventurado, y los ojos que me veían, me daban testimonio.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 29:11
Verse 11. When the ear heard me ] This and the six following verses present us with a fine exhibition of a man full of benevolence and charity, acting up to the highest dictates of those principles, and rendering the miserable of all descriptions happy, by the constant exercise of his unconfined philanthropy.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 7-17 - All sorts of people paid respect to Job, not only for the dignity of his rank, but for his personal merit, his prudence, integrity, and goo management. Happy the men who are blessed with such gifts as these They have great opportunities of honouring God and doing good, but have great need to watch against pride. Happy the people who are blesse with such men! it is a token for good to them. Here we see what Jo valued himself by, in the day of his prosperity. It was by his usefulness. He valued himself by the check he gave to the violence of proud and evil men. Good magistrates must thus be a restraint to evil-doers, and protect the innocent; in order to this, they should ar themselves with zeal and resolution. Such men are public blessings, an resemble Him who rescues poor sinners from Satan. How many who wer ready to perish, now are blessing Him! But who can show forth Hi praises? May we trust in His mercy, and seek to imitate His truth justice, and love.
