ગુજરાતીઅયૂબ ૧૨:૪
મારા પડોશીઓ હાંસીપાત્ર ગણે તેવો હું છું; હું, જેણે ઈશ્વરને પ્રાર્થના કરી અને જેને ઈશ્વરે ઉત્તર પણ આપ્યો તે હું છું; હું, નિર્દોષ અને સંપૂર્ણ માણસ જે હમણાં હાંસીપાત્ર ગણાય તે હું છું.
हिन्दीअय्यूब १२:४
मैं परमेश्वर से प्रार्थना करता था, और वह मेरी सुन लिया करता था; परन्तु अब मेरे मित्र मुझ पर हँसते हैं; जो धर्मी और खरा मनुष्य है, वह हँसी का कारण हो गया है।
