Anne Thayer <[log in to unmask]> asked:
>Can anyone point me to the source of the following quotation?
>"Even if he slay me, yet will I trust him."
Job 13:15, which in the King James Version reads:
Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own
ways before him.
The RSV renders it, "Behold, he will slay me; I have no hope; yet I will
defend my ways to his face," and the Vulgate as, "etiam si occiderit me in
ipso sperabo verumtamen vias meas in conspectu eius arguam."
