22:6“For you took pledges7 from your brothers
for no reason,
and you stripped the clothing from the naked.8
Footnotes
- 7 The verb חָבַל (khaval) means “to take pledges.” In this verse Eliphaz says that Job not only took as pledge things the poor need, like clothing, but he did it for no reason.
- 8 The “naked” here refers to people who are poorly clothed. Otherwise, a reading like the would be necessary: “you stripped the clothes … [leaving them] naked.” So either he made them naked by stripping their garments off, or they were already in rags.
