Ecce hoc, ut investigavimus, ita est : quod auditum, mente pertracta.
Septuagint (Swete)
ἰδοὺ ταῦτα οὕτως ἐξιχνιάσαμεν, ταῦτά ἐστιν ἃ ἀκηκόαμεν· ⸂⸆⸃ σὺ δὲ γνῶθι σεαυτῷ εἴ τι ἔπραξας.
Hebrew (WLC)
הִנֵּה זֹ֭את חֲקַרְנ֥וּהָ כֶּֽן הִ֑יא שְׁ֝מָעֶ֗נָּה וְאַתָּ֥ה דַֽע לָֽךְ

Haydock's commentary

Which thou. Septuagint, "And what we have heard: but do thou reflect with thyself what thou hast done." (Haydock)

What had been revealed to Eliphaz was very true. Yet his conclusions were unwarrantable. (Calmet)

How confidently does he speak of his own knowledge, and how great must have been his disappointment, when God condemned him of folly, and sent him to be the prayers of that very man whom he now considered as a wretched sinner! (Haydock)
