Job 31:9-12
Holman Christian Standard Bible
9 If my heart has been seduced by my neighbor’s wife
or I have lurked at his door,
10 let my own wife grind grain for another man,
and let other men sleep with[a] her.
11 For that would be a disgrace;
it would be a crime deserving punishment.[b](A)
12 For it is a fire that consumes down to Abaddon;
it would destroy my entire harvest.(B)
Job 31:9-12
New Living Translation
9 “If my heart has been seduced by a woman,
or if I have lusted for my neighbor’s wife,
10 then let my wife serve[a] another man;
let other men sleep with her.
11 For lust is a shameful sin,
a crime that should be punished.
12 It is a fire that burns all the way to hell.[b]
It would wipe out everything I own.
