King James Bible - Job 23:12

Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.

World English Bible

I haven't gone back from the commandment of his lips. I have treasured up the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.

Douay-Rheims - Job 23:12

I have not departed from the commandments of his lips, and the words of his mouth I have hid in my bosom.

Webster's Bible Translation

Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.

Original Hebrew

SEV Biblia, Chapter 23:12

Del mandamiento de sus labios nunca me separé; guardé las palabras de su boca más que mi comida.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 23:12

Verse 12. The
commandment of his lips ] The written law that proceeded from his own mouth.

I have esteemed the words of his mouth ] Mr. Good has given a better version of the original: In my bosom have I stored up the words of his mouth. The Asiatics carry every thing precious or valuable in their bosom, their handkerchiefs, jewels, purses, &c. Job, therefore, intimates that the words of God's mouth were to him a most precious treasure.


Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 8-12 - Job knew that the Lord was every where present; but his mind was in such confusion, that he could get no fixed view of God's mercifu presence, so as to find comfort by spreading his case before him. Hi views were all gloomy. God seemed to stand at a distance, and frow upon him. Yet Job expressed his assurance that he should be brough forth, tried, and approved, for he had obeyed the precepts of God. He had relished and delighted in the truths and commandments of God. Her we should notice that Job justified himself rather than God, or i opposition to him, ch. 32:2. Job might feel that he was clear from the charges of his friends, but boldly to assert that, though visited by the hand of God, it was not a chastisement of sin, was his error. An he is guilty of a second, when he denies that there are dealings of Providence with men in this present life, wherein the injured fin redress, and the evil are visited for their sins.
