Job 31:7-12
New International Version
7 if my steps have turned from the path,(A)
if my heart has been led by my eyes,
or if my hands(B) have been defiled,(C)
8 then may others eat what I have sown,(D)
and may my crops be uprooted.(E)
9 “If my heart has been enticed(F) by a woman,(G)
or if I have lurked at my neighbor’s door,
10 then may my wife grind(H) another man’s grain,
and may other men sleep with her.(I)
11 For that would have been wicked,(J)
a sin to be judged.(K)
12 It is a fire(L) that burns to Destruction[a];(M)
it would have uprooted my harvest.(N)

Job 31:7-12
King James Version
7 If my step hath turned out of the way, and mine heart walked after mine eyes, and if any blot hath cleaved to mine hands;
8 Then let me sow, and let another eat; yea, let my offspring be rooted out.
9 If mine heart have been deceived by a woman, or if I have laid wait at my neighbour's door;
10 Then let my wife grind unto another, and let others bow down upon her.
11 For this is an heinous crime; yea, it is an iniquity to be punished by the judges.
12 For it is a fire that consumeth to destruction, and would root out all mine increase.
