18:031:010 Then let my wife grind unto another, and
let others bow down
upon
her.
18:031:011 For this is an heinous crime; yea, it is
an iniquity to be
punished
by the judges.
18:031:012 For it is a fire that consumeth to destruction,
and would root
out
all mine increase.
18:031:013 If I did despise the cause of my manservant
or of my
maidservant,
when they contended with me;
18:031:014 What then shall I do when God riseth up?
and when he visiteth,
what
shall I answer him?
18:031:015 Did not he that made me in the womb make
him? and did not one
fashion
us in the womb?
18:031:016 If I have withheld the poor from their
desire, or have caused
the
eyes of the widow to fail;
18:031:017 Or have eaten my morsel myself alone, and
the fatherless hath
not
eaten thereof;
18:031:018 (For from my youth he was brought up with
me, as with a
father,
and I have guided her from my mother’s womb;)
18:031:019 If I have seen any perish for want of clothing,
or any poor
without
covering;
18:031:020 If his loins have not blessed me, and if
he were not warmed
with
the fleece of my sheep;
18:031:021 If I have lifted up my hand against the
fatherless, when I saw
my
help in the gate:
18:031:022 Then let mine arm fall from my shoulder
blade, and mine arm be
broken
from the bone.
18:031:023 For destruction from God was a terror to
me, and by reason of
his
highness I could not endure.
18:031:024 If I have made gold my hope, or have said
to the fine gold,
Thou
art my confidence;
18:031:025 If I rejoice because my wealth was great,
and because mine
hand
had gotten much;
18:031:026 If I beheld the sun when it shined, or
the moon walking in
brightness;
18:031:027 And my heart hath been secretly enticed,
or my mouth hath
kissed
my hand:
18:031:028 This also were an iniquity to be punished
by the judge: for I
should
have denied the God that is above.
18:031:029 If I rejoice at the destruction of him
that hated me, or
lifted
up myself when evil found him:
18:031:030 Neither have I suffered my mouth to sin
by wishing a curse to
his
soul.
18:031:031 If the men of my tabernacle said not, Oh
that we had of his
flesh!
we cannot be satisfied.
18:031:032 The stranger did not lodge in the street:
but I opened my
doors
to the traveller.
18:031:033 If I covered my transgressions as Adam,
by hiding mine
iniquity
in my bosom:
18:031:034 Did I fear a great multitude, or did the
contempt of families
terrify
me, that I kept silence, and went not out of the door?
