Happy In The World



Μάστιξ δὲ παρὰ Κυρίου οὐκ ἔστιν ἐπ' αὐτοῖς.
 

Ἐὰν ἴδῃς ἄνθρωπον τοιαῦτα κατὰ Θεοῦ λαλοῦντα ὑγιαίνοντα τῷ σώματι, βλέποντα, τὰ αἰσθητήρια σώζοντα, καὶ δοκοῦντα ἐνίοτε καὶ ἐν τοῖς κοσμικοῖς εὐτυχεῖν· ὅρα, ὅτι πεπλήρωται ἐπ' αὐτοῦ ἀσεβοῦς ὄντος τό· Μάστιξ δὲ παρὰ Κυρίου οὐκ ἔστιν ἐπ' αὐτοῖς.

Ὠριγένης, Εἰς Τον Ιὠβ, Κεφ ΚΑ'

The whip of The Lord is not upon them... 1

If you observe that a man who speaks things against God is healthy in his body and endowed with good eyesight and unimpaired in his senses, who it seems that whenever he turns to worldly affairs prospers, understand, that it has been fulfilled concerning this impious one: 'The whip of the Lord is not upon them...'


Origen, On Job, Chap 21 

1 Job 21.9
