Job 31:20-27 English Standard Version (ESV)

20. if his body has not blessed me,and if he was not warmed with the fleece of my sheep,

21. if I have raised my hand against the fatherless,because I saw my help in the gate,

22. then let my shoulder blade fall from my shoulder,and let my arm be broken from its socket.

23. For I was in terror of calamity from God,and I could not have faced his majesty.

24. “If I have made gold my trustor called fine gold my confidence,

25. if I have rejoiced because my wealth was abundantor because my hand had found much,

26. if I have looked at the sun when it shone,or the moon moving in splendor,

27. and my heart has been secretly enticed,and my mouth has kissed my hand,
