Job 31:33

Context

31:33 if 1  I have covered my transgressions as men do, 2 

by hiding 3  iniquity in my heart, 4 

1 tn Now the protasis continues again.

2 sn Some commentators suggest taking the meaning here to be “as Adam,” referring to the Paradise story of the sin and denial.

3 tn The infinitive is epexegetical, explaining the first line.

4 tn The MT has “in my bosom.” This is the only place in the OT where this word is found. But its meaning is well attested from Aramaic.
