אִם־זַ֥ךְ וְיָשָׁ֗ר אָ֥תָּה כִּי־עַ֭תָּה יָעִ֣יר עָלֶ֑יךָ וְ֝שִׁלַּ֗ם נְוַ֣ת צִדְקֶֽךָ׃
jika engkau bersih dan lurus, sungguh sekarang juga Ia akan bangkit bagimu dan memulihkan dengan utuh tempat kediaman kebenaranmu.

“If you are pure and upright…He will restore the abode of your righteousness” (Job 8:6). “If you are pure and upright” – “if you were” is not written here, but rather, “you are.” But in the past, he was not a righteous man. “He will rouse Himself for you” (Job 8:6) – the Holy One blessed be He is destined to be roused in your regard, and reward you for all the acts of righteousness that you performed. Because it is written: “But Jacob was a simple man, abiding in tents” (Genesis 25:27); therefore: “Jacob arrived intact.”
Rabbi Berekhya began: “You will decree, and He will fulfill it for you, and light will shine upon your ways” (Job 22:28). “You will decree, and He will fulfill it for you” – this is Jacob. “And light will shine upon your ways” – light will shine upon your two journeys.7The journey to Haran, and the journey back. Because it is written: “If God will be with me…” (Genesis 28:20); “and behold I am with you, and will keep you” (Genesis 28:15): “and I return to my father’s house in peace” (Genesis 28:21), and it is written: “Jacob arrived intact.”
