"But no stranger had to spend the night outside, for I opened my doors to the traveler–"
— Job 31:32, NET Bible
“The stranger did not lodge in the street: but I opened my doors to the traveller.”
“(The sojourner hath not lodged in the street; But I have opened my doors to the traveller); ”
“(the foreigner has not lodged in the street, but I have opened my doors to the traveler);”
“The stranger did not stay without, my door was open to the traveller.”
“The traveller did not take his night's rest in the street, and my doors were open to anyone on a journey;”
“The stranger did not lodge in the street: but I opened my doors to the traveller.”
If I have rejoiced over the misfortune of my enemy or exulted because calamity found him–
I have not even permitted my mouth to sin by asking for his life through a curse–
if the members of my household have never said,‘If only there were someone who has not been satisfied from Job’s meat!’–
But no stranger had to spend the night outside, for I opened my doors to the traveler–
if I have covered my transgressions as men do, by hiding iniquity in my heart,
because I was terrified of the great multitude, and the contempt of families terrified me, so that I remained silent and would not go outdoors–
Job’s Appeal“If only I had someone to hear me! Here is my signature– let the Almighty answer me! If only I had an indictment that my accuser had written.
