Job 31:9-12
Lexham English Bible
9 “If my heart has been enticed by a woman,
and at my neighbor’s doorway I have lain in wait,
10 let my wife grind for another,
and let other men kneel over her,
11 for that is a shameful act,
and that is a criminal offense.[a]
12 Indeed, that is a fire that will consume up to Abaddon,
and it would uproot all my crop.

Job 31:9-12
Holman Christian Standard Bible
9 If my heart has been seduced by my neighbor’s wife
or I have lurked at his door,
10 let my own wife grind grain for another man,
and let other men sleep with[a] her.
11 For that would be a disgrace;
it would be a crime deserving punishment.[b](A)
12 For it is a fire that consumes down to Abaddon;
it would destroy my entire harvest.(B)
