Job 31:21-23

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²¹ If I have lifted my hand against the fatherless when I saw [that the judges would be favorable and be] my help at the [council] gate,

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

²³ For calamity from God was a terror to me, and because of His majesty I could not endure [to face Him] and could do nothing.^(A)
