I understand that the Aionian Bible republishes public domain and Creative Commons Bible texts and that volunteers may be needed to present the original text accurately. I also understand that apocryphal text is removed and most variant verse numbering is mapped to the English standard. I have entered my corrections under the verse(s) below. Proposed corrections to the Translation for Translators, Job Chapter 30 https://www.AionianBible.org/Bibles/English---Trans-Trans/Job/30 1) “But now men who are younger than I am make fun of me— men whose fathers I greatly despised, with the result that I would not even have allowed them to help my dogs guard my sheep. 2) They were men who were old and (weak/worn out); so (what could I gain from them working for me?/I would have gained nothing from them working for me.) [RHQ] 3) They were very poor and hungry, with the result that they chewed on roots [at night] in dry and desolate places. 4) They pulled up plants in the desert [and ate them] and warmed themselves by [burning] the roots of broom trees. 5) Everyone shouted at them as though they were thieves and expelled them [from their areas]. 6) They were forced to live in caves in the hills, in holes in the ground, and in the sides of cliffs. 7) In the bushes they howled [like animals because they were hungry], and they huddled together under thornbushes. 8) They were people without good sense, whose names no one knows; they have been expelled from the land [where they were born]. 9) “And now their [children] sing songs to make fun of me. They tell jokes about me. 10) They are disgusted with me, and they [usually] stay away from me, [but when they see me, ] they are happy to spit in my face. 11) Because [it is as though] [MET] God has cut my bowstring, [he has caused me to be unable to defend myself, ] and he has humbled me, and my enemies have done to me whatever they wanted. 12) (Gangs/Groups of violent youths) attack me and force me to run away; they prepare to destroy me. 13) They prevent me from escaping, and they [do] not [need] anyone to help them (OR, there is no one to help me). 14) [It is as though I am a city wall and] [SIM] they have broken through the wall, and they have come crashing down on me. 15) I am very terrified; My dignity/honor has been taken away as though [SIM] [it has been] blown away by the wind, and my prosperity has disappeared like [SIM] clouds disappear. 16) “And now I [SYN] am about to die [IDM]; I suffer every day. 17) My bones ache during the night, and the pain that torments me never stops. 18) [It is as though God] seizes my clothes and chokes me with the collar of my coat. 19) He has thrown me into the mud; I am [not worth anything more than] dust and ashes. 20) “I cry out to God, but he does not answer/help me; I stand up [and pray], but he does not pay any attention. 21) He acts very cruelly toward me; with all of his power [MTY] he causes me to suffer. 22) He [allows] the wind to lift me up and blow me away, and he tosses me up and down in a violent storm. 23) I know that he will cause me to die, which is what happens to everyone [MTY] who is alive. 24) “When people experience disasters, and they sit on a pile of ruins and cry out for help, others surely [RHQ] reach out their hand to help them. 25) [That is what I did previously]. I wept for people who were experiencing troubles, and I felt sorry for poor/needy people. 26) But when I expected good things [to happen to me], evil things happened; when I waited for light/happiness, all I experienced was darkness/unhappiness [MET]. 27) I am very distressed [IDM], all the time; I suffer every day. 28) I go about very discouraged; I stand up and plead for people to help me. 29) My wailing sounds as sad as [MET] the cries of jackals/foxes and ostriches. 30) My skin has become dark/black and is peeling off, and I have a fever [which causes my body to feel like it is] burning. 31) Previously, I played joyful music on my harp and with my flute, but now I play only the sad music of those who mourn.” Additional comments?
