The instability of the impious man
He brings them again, adding: 'A man who is in affliction and knows how to bear softness' (Psalm 38:11).
Again, this one is silent after insults, appearing formless, then again clothing himself in elegance through change.
For God, dwelling in him, did not lead the inhabitant to the judgment of a lamb unto death, nor was he slaughtered according to the way of a ram, being naturally invisible.
Greek
παραυτίκα πάλιν ἐπάγει προσθείς· Ἄνθρωπος ἐν πληγῇ ὢν καὶ εἰδὼς φέρειν μαλακίαν. 37 Αὖθις ἄρ' οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ μετὰ τὰς ὕβρεις ἀειδὴς, ἄμορφος ὁραθεὶς, εἶτα πάλιν ἐκ μεταβολῆς εὐπρέπειαν ἐνδυσάμενος. Οὐδὲ γὰρ ὁ κατοικῶν ἐν αὐτῷ Θεὸς ἀμνοῦ δίκην εἰς θάνατον ἤγετο καὶ προβάτου τρόπον ἀπεσφάττετο, φυσικῶς ἀόρατος ὤν.
