Job 27:16-17

Context

27:16 If he piles up silver like dust

and stores up clothing like mounds of clay,

27:17 what he stores up 1  a righteous man will wear,

and an innocent man will inherit his silver.

1 tn The text simply repeats the verb from the last clause. It could be treated as a separate short clause: “He may store it up, but the righteous will wear it. But it also could be understood as the object of the following verb, “[what] he stores up the righteous will wear.” The LXX simply has, “All these things shall the righteous gain.”
