Job 31:13-33

New International Version

¹³ “If I have denied justice to any of my servants,^(A)
    whether male or female,
    when they had a grievance against me,^(B)
14 what will I do when God confronts me?^(C)
    What will I answer when called to account?^(D)
15 Did not he who made me in the womb make them?^(E)
    Did not the same one form us both within our mothers?^(F)

¹⁶ “If I have denied the desires of the poor^(G)
    or let the eyes of the widow^(H) grow weary,^(I)
17 if I have kept my bread to myself,
    not sharing it with the fatherless^(J)—
¹⁸ but from my youth I reared them as a father would,
    and from my birth I guided the widow^(K)—
¹⁹ if I have seen anyone perishing for lack of clothing,^(L)
    or the needy^(M) without garments,
²⁰ and their hearts did not bless me^(N)
    for warming them with the fleece^(O) from my sheep,
²¹ if I have raised my hand against the fatherless,^(P)
    knowing that I had influence in court,^(Q)
22 then let my arm fall from the shoulder,
    let it be broken off at the joint.^(R)
23 For I dreaded destruction from God,^(S)
    and for fear of his splendor^(T) I could not do such things.^(U)

²⁴ “If I have put my trust in gold^(V)
    or said to pure gold, ‘You are my security,’^(W)
25 if I have rejoiced over my great wealth,^(X)
    the fortune my hands had gained,^(Y)
26 if I have regarded the sun^(Z) in its radiance
    or the moon^(AA) moving in splendor,
²⁷ so that my heart was secretly enticed^(AB)
    and my hand offered them a kiss of homage,^(AC)
28 then these also would be sins to be judged,^(AD)
    for I would have been unfaithful to God on high.^(AE)

²⁹ “If I have rejoiced at my enemy’s misfortune^(AF)
    or gloated over the trouble that came to him^(AG)—
³⁰ I have not allowed my mouth to sin
    by invoking a curse against their life^(AH)—
³¹ if those of my household have never said,
    ‘Who has not been filled with Job’s meat?’^(AI)—
³² but no stranger had to spend the night in the street,
    for my door was always open to the traveler^(AJ)—
³³ if I have concealed^(AK) my sin as people do,^[a]
    by hiding^(AL) my guilt in my heart
