Job 31:8

Job's Final Defense Continued

⁷ “If my step has turned from the way,
Or my heart followed my eyes,
Or if any spot has stuck to my hands,
⁸ Let me sow and another eat,
And let my crops be uprooted.
⁹ “If my heart has been enticed by a woman,
Or I have lurked at my neighbor’s doorway,

Be Clean
