Exegesis
The construct chain avonot neurai {עֲוֺנ֥וֹת נְעוּרָֽי | ʿăwōnōṯ nə-ʿû-rāy} “iniquities of my youth” narrows the scope to early-life guilt. The parallel structure and inheritance metaphor reinforce the judicial tone and the sense of inescapable reckoning.
Root and etymology
n-ʿ-rnun–ayin–resh
“youth, adolescence”
In context — Job 13:26
For You write bitter things against me, and You cause me to inherit the iniquities of my youth.
