Job 31:7

Job's Final Defense Continued

⁶
Oh, let Him weigh me with accurate scales,
And let God know my integrity.
⁷ 
“If my step has turned away from the way [of God],
Or if my heart has [covetously] followed my eyes,
Or if any spot [of guilt] has stained my hands,

And let my crops be uprooted and ruined.
