Job 31:13-40
New International Version
Job 31:13-40
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
34 because I so feared the crowd(AM)
and so dreaded the contempt of the clans
that I kept silent(AN) and would not go outside—
35 (“Oh, that I had someone to hear me!(AO)
I sign now my defense—let the Almighty answer me;
let my accuser(AP) put his indictment in writing.
36 Surely I would wear it on my shoulder,(AQ)
I would put it on like a crown.(AR)
37 I would give him an account of my every step;(AS)
I would present it to him as to a ruler.(AT))—
38 “if my land cries out against me(AU)
and all its furrows are wet(AV) with tears,
39 if I have devoured its yield without payment(AW)
or broken the spirit of its tenants,(AX)
40 then let briers(AY) come up instead of wheat
and stinkweed(AZ) instead of barley.”
The words of Job are ended.(BA)

- Job 31:33 Or as Adam did
Job 31:13-40
King James Version
Job 31:13-40
King James Version
13 If I did despise the cause of my manservant or of my maidservant, when they contended with me;
14 What then shall I do when God riseth up? and when he visiteth, what shall I answer him?
15 Did not he that made me in the womb make him? and did not one fashion us in the womb?
16 If I have withheld the poor from their desire, or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail;
17 Or have eaten my morsel myself alone, and the fatherless hath not eaten thereof;
18 (For from my youth he was brought up with me, as with a father, and I have guided her from my mother's womb;)
19 If I have seen any perish for want of clothing, or any poor without covering;
20 If his loins have not blessed me, and if he were not warmed with the fleece of my sheep;
21 If I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless, when I saw my help in the gate:
22 Then let mine arm fall from my shoulder blade, and mine arm be broken from the bone.
23 For destruction from God was a terror to me, and by reason of his highness I could not endure.
24 If I have made gold my hope, or have said to the fine gold, Thou art my confidence;
25 If I rejoice because my wealth was great, and because mine hand had gotten much;
26 If I beheld the sun when it shined, or the moon walking in brightness;
27 And my heart hath been secretly enticed, or my mouth hath kissed my hand:
28 This also were an iniquity to be punished by the judge: for I should have denied the God that is above.
29 If I rejoice at the destruction of him that hated me, or lifted up myself when evil found him:
30 Neither have I suffered my mouth to sin by wishing a curse to his soul.
31 If the men of my tabernacle said not, Oh that we had of his flesh! we cannot be satisfied.
32 The stranger did not lodge in the street: but I opened my doors to the traveller.
33 If I covered my transgressions as Adam, by hiding mine iniquity in my bosom:
34 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?
35 Oh that one would hear me! behold, my desire is, that the Almighty would answer me, and that mine adversary had written a book.
36 Surely I would take it upon my shoulder, and bind it as a crown to me.
37 I would declare unto him the number of my steps; as a prince would I go near unto him.
38 If my land cry against me, or that the furrows likewise thereof complain;
39 If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, or have caused the owners thereof to lose their life:
40 Let thistles grow instead of wheat, and cockle instead of barley. The words of Job are ended.
