Job 24:10

24:10 They go about naked, without clothing,

and go hungry while they carry the sheaves. ¹ 

Job 31:19-20

31:19 If I have seen anyone about to perish for lack of clothing,

or a poor man without a coat,

31:20 whose heart did not bless me ² 

as he warmed himself with the fleece of my sheep, ³ 

[24:10]  ¹ sn The point should not be missed – amidst abundant harvests, carrying sheaves about, they are still going hungry.

[31:20]  ² tn The MT has simply “if his loins did not bless me.” In the conditional clause this is another protasis. It means, “if I saw someone dying and if he did not thank me for clothing them.” It is Job’s way of saying that whenever he saw a need he met it, and he received his share of thanks – which prove his kindness. G. R. Driver has it “without his loins having blessed me,” taking “If…not” as an Aramaism, meaning “except” (AJSL 52 [1935/36]: 164f.).

[31:20]  ³ tn This clause is interpreted here as a subordinate clause to the first half of the verse. It could also be a separate clause: “was he not warmed…?”
