Job 31:5-17

5If I have walked with falsehood, and my foot hath hasted to deceit,

6(Let me be weighed in an even balance, and 1God will take knowledge of my blamelessness;)

7If my step have turned out of the way, and my heart followed mine eyes, and if any blot cleaveth to my hands;

8Let me sow, and another eat; and let mine offspring be rooted out.

9If my heart have been enticed unto a woman, so that I laid wait at my neighbour's door,

10Let my wife grind for another, and let others bow down upon her.

11For this is an infamy; yea, it is an iniquity [to be judged by] the judges:

12For it is a fire that consumeth to destruction, and would root out all mine increase.

13If I have despised the cause of my bondman or of my bondmaid, when they contended with me,

14What then should I do when 2God riseth up? and if he visited, what should I answer him?

15Did not he that made me in the womb make him? and did not One fashion us in the womb?

16If I have withheld the poor from [their] desire, or caused the eyes of the widow to fail;

17Or have eaten my morsel alone, so that the fatherless ate not thereof,
