American Standard Version
Job 31:20-28
20If his loinsH2504 have not blessedH1288 me,And if he hath not been warmedH2552 with the fleeceH1488 of my sheep;21If I have lifted up my handH3027 against the fatherlessH3490,Because I sawH7200 my helpH5833 in the gateH8179:22Then let my shoulderH3802 fallH5307 from the shoulder-blade,And mine armH248 be brokenH7665 from the bone.23For calamityH343 from GodH410 is a terrorH6343 to me,And by reason of his majestyH7613 I can do nothing.24If I have madeH7760 goldH2091 my hope,And have saidH559 to the fine goldH2091, Thou artmy confidenceH4009;25If I have rejoicedH8055 because my wealthH2428 was greatH7227,And because my handH3027 had gotten much;26If I have beheld the sun when it shined,Or the moonH3394 walkingH1980 in brightness,27And my heartH3820 hath been secretly enticedH6601,And my mouthH6310 hath kissedH5401 my handH3027:28This alsoH1571 were an iniquityH5771 to be punished by the judges;For I should have deniedH3584 the GodH410 that is above.
