Job 31:34 in Context — Job 31

32 El extranjero no tenía fuera la noche; mis puertas abría al caminante.

33 Si encubrí, como los hombres mis prevaricaciones, escondiendo en mi seno mi iniquidad;

34 Porque quebrantaba á la gran multitud, y el menosprecio de las familias me atemorizó, y callé, y no salí de mi puerta:

35 ¡Quién me diera quien me oyese! He aquí mi impresión [es] que el Omnipotente testificaría por mí, aunque mi adversario me hiciera el proceso.

36 Ciertamente yo lo llevaría sobre mi hombro, y me lo ataría en lugar de corona.
