There was a man in the land of Hus, whose name was Job, and that man was simple and upright, and fearing God, and avoiding evil.

George Leo Haydock

1774–1849 Catholic

Hus. The land of Hus was a part of Edom; as appears from Lamentations iv. 21. — Simple. That is, innocent, sincere, and without guile, (Challoner) in opposition to hypocrites and double dealers. (Calmet) — Hebrew Tam, “perfect.”
