26 if I have looked at the sun[a] when it shone
    or the moon moving in splendor,(A)

  1. 31.26 Heb the light

26 if I look at the sun[a] when it shines
    or the moon as it rises in steady splendor,
27 so that in the depths of my deceived heart
    I worshipped them with my mouth and hands,
28 this is also a sin that deserves to be judged,
    since I would have tried to deceive[b] God above.”
