20. If his heart did not bless me for warming him with the giz (fleece) of my sheep,
21. If I have lifted up my yad against the yatom, when I saw my influence in the sha'ar (gate, court);
22. Then let mine arm fall from my shoulder, and mine zero'a be broken from its socket.
23. For destruction from El was a pachad to me, and by reason of His majesty I could not endure.
24. If I have made zahav my hope, or have said to the fine gold, Thou art my security,
25. If I rejoice because my wealth was rav (great), and because mine yad had gotten much,
26. If I beheld the ohr when it shined, or the yarei'ach moving in splendor,
27. And my lev hath been secretly enticed, or my mouth hath kissed my yad [in heathen worship];
28. This also were an avon to be punished by the judge; for then I would have been unfaithful, denying El that is on high.
29. If I rejoice at the misfortune of him that hated me, or gloated when rah found him,
30. Neither have I allowed my mouth to sin by invoking a curse to his nefesh.
