Sedan satt de med honom på marken i sju dagar och sju nätter, och ingen sa ett ord till honom, eftersom de såg att hans lidande var mycket stort.
SKB
Sedan satt de med honom på marken i sju dagar och sju nätter utan att någon av dem talade ett ord till honom, eftersom de såg att hans plåga var mycket stor. [De tre besökarna och Jobs agerande här ligger till grund för shiva-veckan, som praktiseras än i dag efter ett dödsfall inom judendomen, se även 1 Mos 50:10; 1 Sam 31:13. Shiva betyder sju på hebreiska. Den familj som har sorg stannar hemma under en veckas tid efter begravningen, som skett samma dag som dödsfallet. Familjen sitter på låga stolar i hemmet för att på ett yttre sätt visa sina inre känslor av sorg. Uttrycket att ”känna sig låg” får ett konkret fysiskt uttryck. Under denna vecka besöker vänner och bekanta familjen och man har ofta med sig mat. Besökaren sätter sig i stillhet intill den sörjande och säger ingenting förrän den som är i sorg är redo att prata. Ursprunget till denna sed kommer från att Jobs vänner satt tysta en vecka och det var Job som inledde samtalet, se Job 3:1.]
