Job 21:33-34
New Catholic Bible
33 The clods of the valley are sweet to him;[a]
the remainder of mankind will follow him,
and those who preceded him are beyond counting.
34 How then can you possibly offer me any comfort
when your words lack any semblance of truth?”
Footnotes
- Job 21:33 The clods of the valley are sweet to him: this line recalls the ancient wish spoken to those who were buried: “May the earth rest lightly upon you” (Sit tibi terra levis).
