Midrash for Job 33:9

זַ֥ךְ אֲנִ֗י בְּֽלִ֫י פָ֥שַׁע חַ֥ף אָנֹכִ֑י וְלֹ֖א עָוֺ֣ן לִֽי׃

’I am clean, without transgression, I am innocent, neither is there iniquity in me;

Otzar Midrashim

The ḤETH in חף אנכי clean am I (Job 33:9) is small. Seven commandments were given before the giving of the Torah, and they are all included in the verse And the LORD Elohim commanded the man, saying: Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat (Genesis 2:17)
