Job 15:11 Douay-Rheims

Is it a great matter that God should comfort thee? but thy wicked words hinder this.

Gregory the Great

c. A.D. 540–604 Patristic

Ver. 11. Is it a great thing that God should console thee? But thine evil words prevent this.

As if he said to him in plain words; 'If thou wouldest amend thy profession of faith, thou mightest long ago have had consolation in thy scourges.'
