Job 31:22-28 Modern English Version (MEV)

22. then let my arm fall from my shoulder blade,and my arm be broken from the bone.

23. For destruction from God is a terror to me,and because of His highness I cannot endure.

24. “If I have made gold my hope,or have said to the fine gold, ‘You are my confidence’;

25. if I rejoiced because my wealth was great,and because my hand had gained much;

26. if I saw the sun when it shined,or the moon moving in brightness;

27. and my heart has been secretly enticed,or my mouth has kissed my hand;

28. this also would be an iniquity to be punished by the judge,for I would have denied the God who is above.
