Iyov 31:29-36 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

29. If I rejoice at the misfortune of him that hated me, or gloated when rah found him,

30. Neither have I allowed my mouth to sin by invoking a curse to his nefesh.

31. Have the men of my ohel not said, Where can we find one who has not been sated with his basar (meat)?

32. The stranger did not spend the night in the street, but I opened my delet to the ger.

33. If I concealed my peysha like Adam, by hiding mine avon in my heart,

34. Did I fear a great multitude, or did the contempt of mishpekhot terrify me, that I kept silence, and went not out of doors?

35. Oh that one would hear me! See, my tav [signature], that Shaddai would answer me, and that mine adversary had written a sefer [of indictment];

36. Surely I would carry it upon my shoulder, and bind it to me like atarot (crowns).
