31 “I made a covenant with my eyes^(A)
    not to look lustfully at a young woman.^(B)

⁵ “If I have walked with falsehood
    or my foot has hurried after deceit^(A)—
⁶ let God weigh me^(B) in honest scales^(C)
    and he will know that I am blameless^(D)—
⁷ if my steps have turned from the path,^(E)
    if my heart has been led by my eyes,
    or if my hands^(F) have been defiled,^(G)
8 then may others eat what I have sown,^(H)
    and may my crops be uprooted.^(I)

⁹ “If my heart has been enticed^(J) by a woman,^(K)
    or if I have lurked at my neighbor’s door,
¹⁰ then may my wife grind^(L) another man’s grain,
    and may other men sleep with her.^(M)
11 For that would have been wicked,^(N)
    a sin to be judged.^(O)

    it would have uprooted my harvest.^(R)

¹³ “If I have denied justice to any of my servants,^(S)
    whether male or female,
    when they had a grievance against me,^(T)
14 what will I do when God confronts me?^(U)
    What will I answer when called to account?^(V)
15 Did not he who made me in the womb make them?^(W)
    Did not the same one form us both within our mothers?^(X)

¹⁶ “If I have denied the desires of the poor^(Y)
    or let the eyes of the widow^(Z) grow weary,^(AA)
17 if I have kept my bread to myself,

¹⁹ if I have seen anyone perishing for lack of clothing,^(A)
    or the needy^(B) without garments,
²⁰ and their hearts did not bless me^(C)
    for warming them with the fleece^(D) from my sheep,
²¹ if I have raised my hand against the fatherless,^(E)
    knowing that I had influence in court,^(F)
22 then let my arm fall from the shoulder,
    let it be broken off at the joint.^(G)

    the fortune my hands had gained,^(N)
26 if I have regarded the sun^(O) in its radiance
    or the moon^(P) moving in splendor,
²⁷ so that my heart was secretly enticed^(Q)
    and my hand offered them a kiss of homage,^(R)
28 then these also would be sins to be judged,^(S)
