Job 11:4

11:4 For you have said, ‘My teaching ¹  is flawless,

and I am pure in your sight.’

Job 16:17

16:17 although ²  there is no violence in my hands

and my prayer is pure.

[11:4]  ¹ tn The word translated “teaching” is related etymologically to the Hebrew word “receive,” but that does not restrict the teaching to what is received.

[16:17]  ² tn For the use of the preposition עַל (’al) to introduce concessive clauses, see GKC 499 §160.c.
