Job 31:4

31:4 Does he not see my ways

and count all my steps?

Job 34:21

34:21 For his eyes are on the ways of an individual,

he observes all a person’s ¹  steps.

Job 40:19

40:19 It ranks first among the works of God, ² 

the One who made it

has furnished it with a sword. ³ 

[34:21]  ¹ tn Heb “his”; the referent (a person) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[40:19]  ¹ tn Heb “the ways of God.”

[40:19]  ² tc The literal reading of the MT is “let the one who made him draw near [with] his sword.” The sword is apparently a reference to the teeth or tusks of the animal, which cut vegetation like a sword. But the idea of a weapon is easier to see, and so the people who favor the mythological background see here a reference to God’s slaying the Beast. There are again many suggestions on how to read the line. The RV probably has the safest: “He that made him has furnished him with his sword” (the sword being a reference to the sharp tusks with which he can attack).
