job 37:20 Shall it be told him that I speak? if a man speak, surely he shall be swallowed up.

job 37:20 "Shall it be told Him that I would speak? Or should a man say that he would be swallowed up?

20. What I a mortal say against God's dealings is not worthy of being told HIM. In opposition to Job's wish to "speak" before God (Job 13:3, 18-22).
if . . . surely he shall be swallowed up--The parallelism more favors UMBREIT, "Durst a man speak (before Him, complaining) that he is (without cause) being destroyed?"

job 37:20 "Shall it be told Him that I would speak? Or should a man say that he would be swallowed up?
