Job 29:20

Context

29:20 My glory 1  will always be fresh 2  in me,

and my bow ever new in my hand.’

1 tn The word is “my glory,” meaning his high respect and his honor. Hoffmann proposed to read כִּידוֹן (kidon) instead, meaning “javelin” (as in 1 Sam 17:6), to match the parallelism (RQ 3 [1961/62]: 388). But the parallelism does not need to be so tight.

2 tn Heb “new.”
