Solace, pain, solace

Verse that sticks out to me in today's reading:
For You write bitter things against me, and make me inherit the iniquities of my youth. - Job 13:26
I wonder what Job could have referred to there. Up until now he was pushing his innocence. But now, in a desperate attempt to explain his suffering, his mind becomes troubled by the "iniquities of my youth." Did he fool around as a teenager and wonders if it's come back to haunt him?

Strange. Dunno.
