Job 34:31
King James Version
9 Jun 2026
“Surely it is meet to be said unto God, I have borne chastisement, I will not offend any more:”
חָבַל
To bind, to pledge, to destroy. Chabal. Job says his spirit is broken — chabal. The word carries the weight of something twisted and ruined. Yet even in ruin Job holds on. The God who binds can also unbind. The God who breaks can also restore.
נָשָׂא
I have borne

נָשָׂא
To lift up, to bear, to forgive. Nasa. God lifts the weight of guilt. He carries what we cannot carry.
