Ayub 16:17

16:17 although ¹  there is no violence in my hands

and my prayer is pure.

Ayub 36:4

36:4 For in truth, my words are not false;

it is one complete ²  in knowledge

who is with you.

[16:17]  ¹ tn For the use of the preposition עַל (’al) to introduce concessive clauses, see GKC 499 §160.c.

[36:4]  ² tn The word is תְּמִים (tÿmim), often translated “perfect.” It is the same word used of Job in 2:3. Elihu is either a complete stranger to modesty or is confident regarding the knowledge that he believes God has revealed to him for this situation. See the note on the heading before 32:1.
