avere la pazienza di Giobbe
Parola del giorno | Word of the day
Today's Parola del Giorno is the expression avere la pazienza di Giobbe, which means to have the patience of Job.
Given the presence of the Catholic Church throughout Italy, it is no surprise that a lot of Italian expressions are connected to the Church.
See the expression used below:
Per quanto tempo ancora dovremo sopportare le tue mancanze di rispetto? Siamo stufi del tuo comportamento, guarda che non abbiamo la pazienza di Giobbe!
How much longer will we still have to put up with your lack of respect? We are fed up with your behavior, mind that we do not have the patience of Job!
