Job 22:23

22:23 If you return to the Almighty, you will be built up;

if you remove wicked behavior far from your tent,

Job 22:27

22:27 You will pray to him and he will hear you,

and you will fulfill your vows to him.


tc The MT has “you will be built up” (תִּבָּנֶה, tibbaneh). But the LXX has “humble yourself” (reading תְּעַנֶּה [tÿanneh] apparently). Many commentators read this; Dahood has “you will be healed.”

tn The words “to him” are not in the Hebrew text, but are implied.
