Job 31:9-12
Legacy Standard Bible
9 “If my heart has been (A)enticed by a woman,
Or I have lied in wait at my neighbor’s doorway,
10 May my wife (B)grind for another,
And let (C)others [a]kneel down over her.
11 For that would be (D)lewdness;
Moreover, it would be (E)an iniquity punishable by judges.
12 For it would be (F)fire that consumes to [b](G)Abaddon,
And would (H)uproot all my [c]produce.
Job 31:9-12
Evangelical Heritage Version
9 If my heart has been enticed by a woman,
if I have lurked at my neighbor’s doorway,
10 let my wife grind for another,
and let other men crouch down over her.
11 For that would have been shameful behavior,
a guilty deed worthy of judgment.
12 There is a fire that consumes all the way to hell,[a]
that would completely burn up all my harvest.
