King James Version
"Surely I would take it upon my shoulder, and bind it as a crown to me."
— Job 31:36, King James Version
“Surely I would carry it upon my shoulder; I would bind it unto me as a crown: ”
“Surely I would carry it on my shoulder; and I would bind it to me as a crown.”
“Surely I would wear it proudly on my shoulder, I would bind it on me like a crown;”
“That I may carry it on my shoulder, and put it about me as a crown?”
“Truly I would take up the book in my hands; it would be to me as a crown;”
“Surely I would take it upon my shoulder, and bind it as a crown to me.”
If I covered my transgressions as Adam, by hiding mine iniquity in my bosom:
Did I fear a great multitude, or did the contempt of families terrify me, that I kept silence, and went not out of the door?
Oh that one would hear me! behold, my desire is, that the Almighty would answer me, and that mine adversary had written a book.
Surely I would take it upon my shoulder, and bind it as a crown to me.
I would declare unto him the number of my steps; as a prince would I go near unto him.
If my land cry against me, or that the furrows likewise thereof complain;
If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, or have caused the owners thereof to lose their life:
