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.

Job 31:5-8
New Living Translation
5 “Have I lied to anyone
or deceived anyone?
6 Let God weigh me on the scales of justice,
for he knows my integrity.
7 If I have strayed from his pathway,
or if my heart has lusted for what my eyes have seen,
or if I am guilty of any other sin,
8 then let someone else eat the crops I have planted.
Let all that I have planted be uprooted.
