The Key Word — צֶדֶק, Tze.dekgenerated
The Hebrew word צֶדֶק (Tze.dek) conveys the idea of righteousness or justice, often associated with God's character and the moral standards expected of humanity. It encompasses a broad range of meanings, including ethical correctness and legal justice, and is used to describe the ideal behavior in personal and societal contexts.
In this verse, Job states that he 'put on' righteousness, indicating an active choice to embody these qualities. This suggests that righteousness is not merely an inherent trait but something that can be adopted and worn like clothing.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse consists of one main clause with two predicates: לָבַשְׁתִּי (I put on) and וַיִּלְבָּשֵׁ֑נִי (and it clothed me). The structure emphasizes the active role Job plays in 'putting on' righteousness, followed by the result of that action.
The use of the conjunction 'and' connects the two actions, illustrating a seamless transition from Job's choice to embody righteousness to the resulting state of being clothed in justice.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
In the Septuagint, צֶדֶק is rendered as δικαιοσύνην (dikaiosynēn), which also means righteousness. This choice reflects a consistent understanding of the term across both Hebrew and Greek texts, emphasizing the moral and ethical dimensions of righteousness.
The translation captures the essence of Job's declaration, maintaining the idea that righteousness is something that can be actively donned, reinforcing the connection between Job's character and his societal role.

“I put on righteousness,” he says. There are people who occupy higher positions than others but who often commit injustice. But this is not the case with Job, because he constantly lived in the greatest righteousness.Early Church Fathers on Job 29 →
With righteousness was I clothed, and arrayed myself as with raiment. And my judgment a diadem. [HISTORICAL / MORAL INTERPRETATION] Surely, when we are clothed with a garment, we are surrounded on every side,Early Church Fathers on Job 29 →

The Vulgate and the LXX. Versions have “Heliopolis” (“city of the sun”) instead of On in Genesis and of Aven in Ezekiel.

(abode or city of the sun), a town of lower Egypt, called BETH-SHEMESH in (Jeremiah 43:13) On is better known under its Greek name Heliopolis. It was situated on the east side of the Pelusiac branch of the Nile, just below the point of the Delta, and about twenty miles northeast of Memphis. The chief object of worship at Heliopolis was the sun, whose temple, described by Strabo, is now only represented by the single beautiful obelisk, of red granite so feet 2 inches high above the pedestal which has stood for more than 4000 years, having been erected by Usirtesen, the second king of the twelfth dynasty. Heliopolis was anciently famous for its learning, and Eudoxus and Plato studied under its priests. The first mention of this place in the Bible is in the history of Joseph, to whom we read Pharaoh gave "to wife Asenath the daughter…
