Is completeness a theme in Job? (The word and its variations occur also in 36:4, 37.16 )
א אִישׁ הָיָה בְאֶרֶץ עוּץ אִיּוֹב שְׁמוֹ וְהָיָה הָאִישׁ הַהוּא תָּם וְיָשָׁר וִירֵא אֱלֹהִים וְסָר מֵרָע | 1.1 | A man there was in the land of Uz Job his name and he was, the man, this very one, complete and upright and he fears God and turns away from evil |
ח וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֶל הַשָּׂטָן הֲשַׂמְתָּ לִבְּךָ עַל עַבְדִּי אִיּוֹב כִּי אֵין כָּמֹהוּ בָּאָרֶץ אִישׁ תָּם וְיָשָׁר יְרֵא אֱלֹהִים וְסָר מֵרָע | 1.8 | and יְהוָה said to the accuser have you set out in your heart concerning my servant Job? For there is none like him in the earth complete and upright fearing God and turning away from evil |
ג וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֶל הַשָּׂטָן הֲשַׂמְתָּ לִבְּךָ אֶל עַבְדִּי אִיּוֹב כִּי אֵין כָּמֹהוּ בָּאָרֶץ אִישׁ תָּם וְיָשָׁר יְרֵא אֱלֹהִים וְסָר מֵרָע וְעֹדֶנּוּ מַחֲזִיק בְּתֻמָּתוֹ וַתְּסִיתֵנִי בוֹ לְבַלְּעוֹ חִנָּם | 2.3 | and יְהוָה said to the accuser have you set out in your heart concerning my servant Job? For there is none like him in the earth a man complete and upright fearing God and turning away from evil and still for him he prevails in his completeness though you incited me against him to swallow him for nothing |
ט וַתֹּאמֶר לוֹ אִשְׁתּוֹ עֹדְךָ מַחֲזִיק בְּתֻמָּתֶךָ בָּרֵךְ אֱלֹהִים וָמֻת | 2.9 | Then his wife said to him Do you still prevail in your completeness? bless God and die |
ו הֲלֹא יִרְאָתְךָ כִּסְלָתֶךָ תִּקְוָתְךָ וְתֹם דְּרָכֶיךָ | 4.6 | Is it not your fear that is your confidence your hope and the completeness of your ways? |
כ הֶן-אֵל לֹא יִמְאַס-תָּם וְלֹא-יַחֲזִיק בְּיַד-מְרֵעִים | 8.20 | Lo - God will not reject completeness nor will he strengthen the hand of evildoers |
כב אַחַת הִיא עַל-כֵּן אָמַרְ תִּיתָּם וְרָשָׁע הוּא מְכַלֶּה | 9.22 | One thing therefore I said complete or wicked he consumes |
ב אָמְנָם כִּי אַתֶּם-עָם וְעִמָּכֶם תָּמוּת חָכְמָה | 12.2 | Truly you are the people and with you is complete wisdom |
ד שְׂחֹק לְרֵעֵהוּ אֶהְיֶה קֹרֵא לֶאֱלוֹהַּ וַיַּעֲנֵהוּ שְׂחוֹק צַדִּיק תָּמִים | 12.4 | A laugh to his neighbour am I "called on God and he answered him" a laugh, the one who is just and complete |

ג הַחֵפֶץ לְשַׁדַּי כִּי תִצְדָּק וְאִם-בֶּצַע כִּי-תַתֵּם דְּרָכֶיךָ | 22.3 | Is it the desire of the Sufficient that you be righteous or is it gain that complete are your ways? |
ה חָלִילָה לִּי אִם-אַצְדִּיק אֶתְכֶם עַד-אֶגְוָע לֹא-אָסִיר תֻּמָּתִי מִמֶּנִּי | 27.5 | A curse on me if I justify you till I expire I will not turn away my completeness from me |
ו יִשְׁקְלֵנִי בְמֹאזְנֵי-צֶדֶק וְיֵדַע אֱלוֹהַּ תֻּמָּתִי | 31.6 | let me be weighed in a righteous hearing that God may know my completeness |
