Job 31:35-37
New American Standard Bible
35 Oh that I had one to hear me!
Here is my [a]signature;
(A)Let the Almighty answer me!
And the indictment which my (B)adversary has written,
36 I would certainly carry it on my shoulder,
I would tie it to myself like a garland.
37 I would declare to Him (C)the number of my steps;
Like (D)a prince, I would approach Him.

Common English Bible
Sealing the solemn pledge
35 Oh, that I had someone to hear me!
Here’s my signature;[a]
let the Almighty respond,
and let my accuser write an indictment.
36 Surely I would bear it on my shoulder,
tie it around me like a wreath.
37 I would give him an account of my steps,
approach him like a prince.
