Job 31:33

if ¹  I have covered my transgressions as men do, ²  by hiding ³  iniquity in my heart, ⁴ 

Ge 3:7,8,12; Jos 7:11; Pr 28:13; Ho 6:7; Ac 5:8; 1Jo 1:8-10

¹ tn Now the protasis continues again.

² sn Some commentators suggest taking the meaning here to be “as Adam,” referring to the Paradise story of the sin and denial.

³ tn The infinitive is epexegetical, explaining the first line.

⁴ tn The MT has “in my bosom.” This is the only place in the OT where this word is found. But its meaning is well attested from Aramaic.
