Job 31:33-34
Expanded Bible
33 I have not hidden my ·sin [transgression] ·as others do [or like Adam did; Gen. 3],
·secretly keeping my guilt to myself [L concealing my guilt in my bosom].
34 I was not so afraid of the crowd [large multitude]
that I kept quiet and ·stayed inside [L did not go out the door]
because I feared being ·hated [held in contempt] by other families.
Job 31:33-34
New American Standard Bible
33 Have I (A)covered my wrongdoings like a man,
By hiding my guilt in my shirt pocket,
34 Because I (B)feared the great multitude
And the contempt of families terrified me,
And I kept silent and did not go out of doors?
