“Since Job wants to show that not only the body is resurrected but also the soul whose thoughts are fixed on God, he says, "You would call, and I would answer you." For listening when God calls is a quality of a creature endowed with reason, that is, the soul.”
Didymus the Blind, 4th c. — COMMENTARY ON JOB 14:15B

15Thou shalt call, and I will answer thee: thou wilt have a desire to the work of thine hands.

In context
13O that thou wouldest hide me in the grave, that thou wouldest keep me secret, until thy wrath be past, that thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me!
14If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.
— Job 14:15 —
16For now thou numberest my steps: dost thou not watch over my sin?
17My transgression is sealed up in a bag, and thou sewest up mine iniquity.
