Job 31:5-8
King James Version
5 If I have walked with vanity, or if my foot hath hasted to deceit;
6 Let me be weighed in an even balance that God may know mine integrity.
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.

Job 31:5-8
New King James Version
5 “If I have walked with falsehood,
Or if my foot has hastened to deceit,
6 [a]Let me be weighed on honest scales,
That God may know my (A)integrity.
7 If my step has turned from the way,
Or (B)my heart walked after my eyes,
Or if any spot adheres to my hands,
8 Then (C)let me sow, and another eat;
Yes, let my harvest be [b]rooted out.
Job 31:5-8
Svenska 1917
5 Har jag väl umgåtts med lögn, och har min fot varit snar till svek?
6 Nej, må jag vägas på en riktig våg, så skall Gud förnimma min ostrafflighet.
7 Hava mina steg vikit av ifrån vägen, har mitt hjärta följt efter mina ögon, eller låder vid min händer en fläck?
8 Då må en annan äta var jag har sått, och vad jag har planterat må ryckas upp med roten.
