Job 31:5-8
English Standard Version
5 “If I have walked with falsehood
and my foot has hastened to deceit;
6 (Let me be (A)weighed in a just balance,
and let God know my integrity!)
7 if my step has turned aside from the way
and (B)my heart has gone after my eyes,
and if any (C)spot has stuck to my hands,
8 then let me (D)sow, and another eat,
and let what grows for me[a] be rooted out.

Deceit
5 If I have walked with frauds
or my feet have hurried to deceit,
6 let him weigh me on accurate scales;
let God know my integrity.
7 If my step has turned from the way,
if my heart has followed my eyes
or a blemish has clung to my hands,
8 then let me sow and another reap;
let my offspring be uprooted.
