Job 31:22-30 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

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

23. For destruction from God was a terror to me, and by reason of his majesty I could not endure.

24. If I have made gold my hope, or have said to the fine gold, You are my confidence;

25. If I rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because my hand had gotten much;

26. If I beheld the sun when it shined, or the moon moving in brightness;

27. And my heart has been secretly enticed, or my mouth has kissed my hand:

28. This also would be an iniquity to be punished by the judge: for I should have denied the God that is above.

29. If I rejoiced at the destruction of him that hated me, or lifted up myself when evil found him:

30. Neither have I suffered my mouth to sin by wishing a curse to his soul.
