Job 31:37

I would give account of all my steps; I would approach Him like a prince.)—

Job 31:37 · BSB

Job 31:37 in context

The verses around it, from Job 31.

33 if I have covered my transgressions like Adam by hiding my guilt in my heart,

34 because I greatly feared the crowds and the contempt of the clans terrified me, so that I kept silent and would not go outside—

35 (Oh, that I had one to hear me! Here is my signature. Let the Almighty answer me; let my accuser compose an indictment.

36 Surely I would carry it on my shoulder and wear it like a crown.

37 I would give account of all my steps; I would approach Him like a prince.)—

38 if my land cries out against me and its furrows weep together,

39 if I have devoured its produce without payment or broken the spirit of its tenants,

40 then let briers grow instead of wheat and stinkweed instead of barley.” Thus conclude the words of Job.
