Job 31:26-28
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
26 if I have looked at the sun[a] when it shone
or the moon moving in splendor,(A)
27 and my heart has been secretly enticed,
and my mouth has kissed my hand,
28 this also would be an iniquity to be punished by the judges,
for I should have been false to God above.(B)

Job 31:26-28
New Living Translation
26 “Have I looked at the sun shining in the skies,
or the moon walking down its silver pathway,
27 and been secretly enticed in my heart
to throw kisses at them in worship?
28 If so, I should be punished by the judges,
for it would mean I had denied the God of heaven.
