Job 31:16-18

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁶ “If I have refused the requests of the poor
or made a widow’s eyes stop ⌞looking for help⌟,
¹⁷ or have eaten my food alone
without letting the orphan eat any of it….
¹⁸ (From my youth the orphan grew up with me
as though I were his father,
and from my birth I treated the widow kindly.)
