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.
