Job 31:12

Context
NETBible

For it is a fire that devours even to Destruction, 1  and it would uproot 2  all my harvest.

Pr 3:33; Pr 6:27; Jer 5:7-9; Mal 3:5; Heb 13:4

NET © Notes

tn Heb “to Abaddon.”

tn The verb means “to root out,” but this does not fit the parallelism with fire. Wright changed two letters and the vowels in the verb to get the root צָרַף (tsaraf, “to burn”). The NRSV has “burn to the root.”
