678:1
V ers. 7.— Ecce clamabo vim patiens, et nemo exau- diet; vociferabor, et non est qui judicet. 40. Dolentium querelas dissimulat Deus, ut utilita- tem augeat. — Omnipotens Deus quid nobis profutu- rum esse valeat sciens, dissimulat exaudire dolen- tium vocem, ut augeat utilitatem, g ut purgetur vita per poenam, et quietis tranquillitas, quae hic inveniri non valet, alibi quaeratur. Sed hanc dispensationis gratiam nonnulli etiam fidelium ignorant. Ex quo- rum etiam persona nunc dicitur: Ecce clamabo vim patiens, et nemo exaudiet; vociferabor, et non est qui judicet.
第7節——「看哪，我受強暴呼喊，卻無人垂聽；我高聲呼叫，卻無人施行審判。」40. 神漠視憂傷者的哀訴，為要增益其好處。——全能的神知道甚麼於我們有益，便佯裝不聽憂傷者的聲音，為要增益其好處——使生命藉苦難得潔淨，並使那在此處無法尋得的安息之寧靜，得在別處尋求。然而，連信徒中也有些人不明白這神聖安排的恩典。如今是以這些人的位格說：「看哪，我受強暴呼喊，卻無人垂聽；我高聲呼叫，卻無人施行審判。」
Verse 7. — 'Behold, I shall cry out, suffering violence, and no one will hear; I shall cry aloud, and there is none to judge.' 40. God disregards the complaints of the sorrowing in order to increase their benefit. — Almighty God, knowing what may prove profitable to us, feigns not to hear the voice of the sorrowing, that He may increase their benefit — that life may be purged through suffering, and that the tranquillity of rest, which cannot be found here, may be sought elsewhere. But some even of the faithful are ignorant of this grace of the divine dispensation. In the person of these it is now said: 'Behold, I shall cry out, suffering violence, and no one will hear; I shall cry aloud, and there is none to judge.'
678:2
Non est enim qui judicet dicitur quando ju- dicare dissumulat ipse qui est, quia causam nostram contra adversarium, praeter eum, qui judicet non est. Nec tamen, hoc sine judicio est, quod judicium dif- fertur, quia cum haec beatus Job diceret, et sancti viri merita, et adversarii poena crescebat. Hoc ipsum ergo judicium h differre judicis est. Sed aliud est quod juste intrinsecus disponit Deus, aliud quod fo- ris flagellis attritus expetit animus. Unde adhuc de ipsa verberum depressione subjungit:
因為當那位真正自有者漠視施行審判時，便說「無人施行審判」，因為除了那位審判者以外，無人為我們的案件對抗仇敵。然而審判被延遲並非沒有審判，因為蒙福的約伯說這些話時，聖者的功德與仇敵的刑罰都在增長。所以，這延遲審判之舉正是屬於審判者的。但神在內裡公義所安排的是一回事，那被外在鞭打磨損的心靈所渴求的又是另一回事。因此，他仍就這鞭打的重壓接下去說：
For 'there is none to judge' is said when He who truly is disregards judging, since apart from Him who judges, there is none to plead our cause against the adversary. Nor yet is it without judgement that judgement is deferred, because while blessed Job was saying these things, both the merits of the holy man and the punishment of the adversary were growing. This very deferring of judgement, then, belongs to the Judge. But it is one thing that God inwardly and justly ordains, another that the soul, worn down by outward scourges, longs for. Whence, still concerning the very pressure of the blows, he adds:
