Job 21:32

21:32 And when he is carried to the tombs,

and watch is kept ¹  over the funeral mound, ² 

Job 10:19

10:19 I should have been as though I had never existed; ³ 

I should have been carried

right from the womb to the grave!

Job 21:30

21:30 that the evil man is spared

from the day of his misfortune,

that he is delivered ⁴ 

from the day of God’s wrath?

[21:32]  ¹ tn The verb says “he will watch.” The subject is unspecified, so the translation is passive.

[21:32]  ² tn The Hebrew word refers to the tumulus, the burial mound that is erected on the spot where the person is buried.

[10:19]  ³ sn This means “If only I had never come into existence.”

[21:30]  ⁵ tn The verb means “to be led forth.” To be “led forth in the day of trouble” means to be delivered.
