Job 31:16-22

16I have never refused to help people who are poor. I have always helped widows to hope for good things.

17I have never kept all my food for myself. I have always shared it with children who have no family.

18Since I was a young man, I have helped those children like a father. All my life I have helped widows too.

19I have seen people without enough clothes to keep them warm, or without a coat to wear.

20Then I would give them clothes. The wool from my sheep would keep them warm. And they all thanked me.

21I have not turned against children who have no family, even when the city judges agreed with me.

22God should punish me if these things are not true. I would accept the punishment that I deserve.
