“If I sin, then thou markest me, and thou wilt not acquit me from mine iniquity.”
Job asserts that if he sins, God marks it and does not acquit him of his iniquity, suggesting that God is relentlessly keeping account of transgression. The divine bookkeeping of sin leaves no room for forgiveness or escape. Job's implicit question is whether he has sinned; if not, why is he being treated as if he has.
