Job 29:11

Job’s Benevolence

29:11 “As soon as the ear heard these things, ¹  it blessed me, ² 

and when the eye saw them, it bore witness to me,

[29:11]  ¹ tn The words “these things” and “them” in the next colon are not in the Hebrew text, but have been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[29:11]  ² tn The main clause is introduced by the preterite with the vav (ו) consecutive (see GKC 327 §111.h); the clause before it is therefore temporal and circumstantial to the main clause.
