Job 26:6

26:6 The underworld is naked before God;

the place of destruction lies uncovered.

Job 24:7

24:7 They spend the night naked because they lack clothing;

they have no covering against the cold.

Job 24:10

24:10 They go about naked, without clothing,

and go hungry while they carry the sheaves.


tn Heb “Sheol.”

tn Heb “before him.”

tn The line has “and there is no covering for destruction.” “Destruction” here is another name for Sheol: אֲבַדּוֹן (’avaddon, “Abaddon”).

sn The point should not be missed – amidst abundant harvests, carrying sheaves about, they are still going hungry.
