“The Intimate God” (Job 42:7)[Spanish Jerusalem Bible Series - Job sub-series - # Job 42:7]
“contigo” (with you) I’d not seen –
“Familiar form” is what had been
Depicted in the Spanish tongue;
But Carol noted, it’s the one –In French and Spanish as the voice;
“Familiar” – seems to be the choice –
As intimate, close friend, indeed,
Is what, of God, mankind has need.In English, we don’t have two forms
For friendly-formal – you’d think norm
For God with folks would “Formal” be,
As God is greater, one can see.But I think this touch is quite cool –
Not something one would learn in school,
But plain as day in Spanish text;
Thanks God – for “Intimate” works best.Thanks Lord for this.
