“If I have (A)walked with deception,
And my foot has hurried after deceit,
Let Him (B)weigh me with [a]accurate scales,
And let God know (C)my integrity.
If my step has (D)turned from the way,
Or my heart [b]followed my eyes,
Or if any (E)spot has stuck to my hands,
Let me (F)sow and another eat,
And let my [c](G)crops be uprooted.

If I have walked with falsehood,
And my foot hath hasted to deceit
(Let me be weighed in an even balance,
That God may know mine integrity);
If my step hath turned out of the way,
And my heart walked after mine eyes,
And if any spot hath cleaved to my hands:
Then let me sow, and let another eat;
Yea, let [a]the produce of my field be rooted out.
