Job 31:17–23

17

or have eaten my morsel alone,

and the fatherless has not eaten of it

18

(no, from my youth he grew up with me as with a father,

I have guided her from my mother’s womb);

19

if I have seen any perish for want of clothing,

or that the needy had no covering;

Selected verse

if his heart hasn’t blessed me,

if he hasn’t been warmed with my sheep’s fleece;

21

if I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless,

because I saw my help in the gate;

22

then let my shoulder fall from the shoulder blade,

and my arm be broken from the bone.

23

For calamity from God is a terror to me.

Because of his majesty, I can do nothing.
