Job 19:9

19:9 He has stripped me of my honor

and has taken the crown off my head. ¹ 

[19:9]  ¹ sn The images here are fairly common in the Bible. God has stripped away Job’s honorable reputation. The crown is the metaphor for the esteem and dignity he once had. See 29:14; Isa 61:3; see Ps 8:5 [6].
