Job 19:28

New English Translation

²⁸If you say, ‘How we will pursue him,
since the root of the trouble is found in him!’^[a]

Job 19:28 tc The MT reads “in me.” If that is retained, then the question would be in the first colon, and the reasoning of the second colon would be Job’s. But over 100 mss have “in him,” and so this reading is accepted by most editors. The verse is a little difficult, but it seems to form a warning by Job that God’s appearance which will vindicate Job will bring judgment on those who persecute him and charge him falsely.
