Job 31:20-28

20if his heart did not bless me as he warmed himself with the fleece of my sheep,

21if I have raised my hand against the orphan, when I saw my support in the gate,

22then let my shoulder blade fall from my shoulder, and let my arm be broken off at the joint.

23For calamity from God was a terror to me, and because of His majesty, I could do nothing.

24“If I have put my confidence in gold or said to fine gold, ‘You are my security,’

25if I rejoiced because of my great wealth or because of the abundance my hand acquired,

26if I looked at the sun when it shines or the moon moving in splendor,

27so that my heart was secretly enticed, and my hand threw a kiss from my mouth,

28then this also would be iniquity to be judged, for I would have denied God above.
