31:1-40 Job called down curses on himself if he were guilty of the accusations made against him. Except for his mention of idolatry (31:26-27), Job addressed his fidelity to God in terms of the second half of the Ten Commandments, summarized by the command to “love your neighbor as yourself” (Lev 19:18; Rom 13:9).
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
וְ֝הִתְעֹרַ֗רְתִּי
and,exulted
This expression means to consider oneself in a better position than another who has suffered a misfortune. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “or gloated”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / personification
כִּֽי־מְצָ֥אוֹ רָֽע
that/for/because/then/when overtook,him evil
Job is speaking of evil as if it were a living thing that could have found someone who hated him. Here the word evil has the sense of “misfortune” rather than of moral wrong. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “because he suffered misfortune”
Note 3 topic: writing-oathformula
כִּֽי־מְצָ֥אוֹ רָֽע
that/for/because/then/when overtook,him evil
This is the conclusion of an oath that Job is swearing in this verse. See what you did in 31:25, where Job similarly does not state the second part of the condition in an oath that he is swearing. Alternate translation: “because evil found him, then judges would certainly punish such iniquity” or “because evil found him, then I would certainly deserve punishment”
