Job 32:22

32:22 for I do not know how to give honorary titles, ¹ 

if I did, ²  my Creator would quickly do away with me. ³ 

[32:22]  ¹ tn The construction uses a perfect verb followed by the imperfect. This is a form of subordination equivalent to a complementary infinitive (see GKC 385-86 §120.c).

[32:22]  ² tn The words “if I did” are supplied in the translation to make sense out of the two clauses.

[32:22]  ³ tn Heb “quickly carry me away.”
