Job 31:25

Context

31:25 if I have rejoiced because of the extent of my wealth,

or because of the great wealth my hand had gained,

Job 35:9

Context

35:9 “People 1  cry out

because of the excess of oppression; 2 

they cry out for help

because of the power 3  of the mighty. 4 

1 tn The word “people” is supplied, because the sentence only has the masculine plural verb.

2 tn The final noun is an abstract plural, “oppression.” There is no reason to change it to “oppressors” to fit the early versions. The expression is literally “multitude of oppression.”

3 tn Heb “the arm,” a metaphor for strength or power.

4 tn Or “of the many” (see HALOT 1172 s.v. I רַב 6.a).
