Commentary on Job 31:6
Job requests: 'Let me be weighed in an even balance, that God may know mine integrity.' The phrase mo'znei-tsedeq (מֹאזְנֵי־צֶדֶק, even balance) refers to honest, accurate scales. Shakal (שָׁקַל, weighed) means to weigh out or measure. Job invites divine assessment, confident in his innocence. The phrase 'that God may know' uses yada (יָדַע, know), not implying God lacks knowledge but expressing confidence that divine examination will vindicate. Tummah (תֻּמָּה, integrity) means completeness or innocence. Job's confidence in divine scrutiny demonstrates clear conscience.
