Ayub 42:1

Job’s Confession

42:1 Then Job answered the Lord:

1 Samuel 12:3

12:3 Here I am. Bring a charge against me before the Lord and before his chosen king. ⁴  Whose ox have I taken? Whose donkey have I taken? Whom have I wronged? Whom have I oppressed? From whose hand have I taken a bribe so that I would overlook something? Tell me, ⁵  and I will return it to you!”

Kisah Para Rasul 20:33

20:33 I have desired ⁶  no one’s silver or gold or clothing.

[42:11]  ¹ tn Heb “ate bread.”

[42:11]  ² tn The Hebrew word קְשִׂיטָה (qÿsitah) is generally understood to refer to a unit of money, but the value is unknown.

[42:11]  sn The Hebrew word refers to a piece of silver, yet uncoined. It is the kind used in Gen 33:19 and Josh 24:32. It is what would be expected of a story set in the patriarchal age.

[42:11]  ³ sn This gold ring was worn by women in the nose, or men and women in the ear.

[12:3]  ⁴ tn Heb “anointed [one].”

[12:3]  ⁵ tn The words “tell me” are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[20:33]  ⁶ tn Traditionally, “coveted.” BDAG 371 s.v. ἐπιθυμέω 1 has “to have a strong desire to do or secure someth., desire, long for w. gen. of the thing desired…silver, gold, clothing Ac 20:33.” The traditional term “covet” is not in common usage and difficult for many modern English readers to understand. The statement affirms Paul’s integrity. He was not doing this for personal financial gain.
