Job 31:29 - Forerunner Commentary

Job 31:29

27 So that my heart has been secretly enticed,
And my mouth has kissed my hand;

28 This also would be an iniquity deserving of judgment,
For I would have denied God who is above.

29 “If^a I have rejoiced at the destruction of him who hated me,
Or lifted myself up when evil found him

By asking for a curse on his¹ soul);

31 If the men of my tent have not said,
‘Who is there that has not been satisfied with his meat?’

32 ^a(But no sojourner had to lodge in the street,
For I have opened my doors to the¹ traveler);

33 If I have covered my transgressions ^aas Adam,
By hiding my iniquity in my bosom,
