NETBible

So the Lord said to Satan, “Have you considered¹ my servant Job? There² is no one like him on the earth, a pure and upright man, one who fears God and turns away³ from evil.”

NET Notes

¹tn The Hebrew has “have you placed your heart on Job?” This means “direct your mind to” (cf. BDB 963 s.v. I שׂוּם 2.b).

¹sn The question is undoubtedly rhetorical, for it is designed to make Satan aware of Job as God extols his fine qualities.

²tn The Hebrew conjunction כִּי (ki) need not be translated in this case or it might be taken as emphatic (cf. IBHS 665 §39.3.4e): “Certainly there is no one like him.”

³tn The same expressions that appeared at the beginning of the chapter appear here in the words of God. In contrast to that narrative report about Job, the emphasis here is on Job’s present character, and so the participle form is translated here asa gnomic or characteristic present (“turns”). It modifies “man” as one who is turning from evil.
