욥기 17:9의 주석

Yet the righteous holds on his way i.e., every righteous man holds on his way to stand up against the company of the hypocrites.

The righteous person will believe Job is being punished for his sins and for fear that the same might befall him, will become still more of a zealot. The pious devotee, who believes that he is being punished for a lack of piety will redouble his own devotion to God.
