Job 31:5

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

If I have walked with vanity, or if my foot hath hasted to deceit;

O Lord my God, if I have done this,
If there is injustice in my hands,

O sons of men, how long will my honor become a reproach?
How long will you love what is worthless and aim at deception?

Selah.

They speak falsehood to one another;
With flattering lips and with a double heart they speak.

If we had forgotten the name of our God
Or extended our hands to a strange god,

He who tills his land will have plenty of bread,
But he who pursues worthless things lacks sense.

Thus says the Lord,
“What injustice did your fathers find in Me,
That they went far from Me
And walked after emptiness and became empty?

Therefore, thus says the Lord God, “Because you have spoken falsehood and seen a lie, therefore behold, I am against you,” declares the Lord God.

Examine me, O Lord, and try me;

Test my mind and my heart.
