Job 31:20-28

20IfH518 his loinsH2504 have notH3808 blessedH1288 meH1288, and ifH518 he were notH3808 warmedH2552 with the fleeceH1488 of my sheepH3532;

21IfH518 I have liftedH5130 upH7200 my handH3027 againstH5921 the fatherlessH3490, becauseH3588 I sawH7200 my helpH5833 in the gateH8179:

22Then let my shoulderH3802 fallH5307 from the shoulderH3802 blade, and mine armH248 be brokenH7665 from the bone.

23For calamityH343 from GodH410 was a terrorH6343 to meH413, and by reason of his excellency I couldH3201 doH3201 nothingH3808.

24IfH518 I have madeH7760 goldH2091 my hope, and have saidH559 to the fineH3800 goldH2091, Thou art my confidenceH4009;

25IfH518 I rejoicedH8055 becauseH3588 my wealthH2428 was greatH7227, and becauseH3588 mine handH3027 had gotten muchH3027;

26IfH518 I beheld the sunH216 when it shined, or the moonH3394 walkingH1980 in brightness;

27And my heartH3820 hath been secretly enticedH6601, and my mouthH6310 hath kissedH5401 my handH3027:

28This also were an iniquityH5771 to be punished by the judges: for I should have liedH3584 to GodH410 that is aboveH4605.
