Raw Blame History

Why did her knees welcome me?

This perhaps refers to the lap of Job's mother. His mother's knees are spoken of as if they were people who could welcome a newborn baby. Alternate translation: "I wish there had been no lap to receive me." (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion and rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-personification)

Why did her breasts receive me so that I should suck?

Job's mother's breasts are spoken of as if they also were people who could welcome a newborn baby. Alternate translation: "I wish there had been no breasts for me to nurse." (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion and rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-personification)
