Job 34:32

Context

Job 36:9

Context

36:9 then he reveals 4  to them what they have done, 5 

and their transgressions,

that they were behaving proudly.

Job 36:23

Context

36:23 Who has prescribed his ways for him?

Or said to him, ‘You have done what is wicked’?

1 tn The expression “and he has done” is taken here to mean “what he has done.”

2 tn Heb “Who declares his way to his face? // Who repays him for what he has done?” These rhetorical questions, which expect a negative answer (“No one!”) have been translated as indicative statements to bring out their force clearly.

3 tn Heb “what I do not see,” more specifically, “apart from [that which] I see.”

4 tn The verb נָגַד (nagad) means “to declare; to tell.” Here it is clear that God is making known the sins that caused the enslavement or captivity, so “reveal” makes a good interpretive translation.

5 tn Heb “their work.”
