King James Version

Job 31:20-28

20If his loinsH2504 have not blessedH1288 me, and if he were not warmedH2552 with the fleeceH1488 of my sheepH3532;

21If I have lifted upH5130 my handH3027 against the fatherlessH3490, when I sawH7200 my helpH5833 in the gateH8179:

22Then let mine armH3802 fallH5307 from my shoulder bladeH7929, and mine armH248 be brokenH7665 from the boneH7070.1

23For destructionH343 from GodH410 was a terrorH6343 to me, and by reason of his highnessH7613 I couldH3201 not endure.

24If I have madeH7760 goldH2091 my hopeH3689, or have saidH559 to the fine goldH3800, Thou art my confidenceH4009;

25If I rejoicedH8055 because my wealthH2428 was greatH7227, and because mine handH3027 had gottenH4672 muchH3524;2

26If I beheldH7200 the sunH216 when it shinedH1984, or the moonH3394 walkingH1980 in brightnessH3368;34

27And my heartH3820 hath been secretlyH5643 enticedH6601, or my mouthH6310 hath kissedH5401 my handH3027:5

28This also were an iniquityH5771 to be punished by the judgeH6416: for I should have deniedH3584 the GodH410 that is aboveH4605.
