20. If his sides have not blessed me, and if he were not warmed with the fleece of my sheep:
21. If I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless, even when I saw myself superior in the gate:
22. Let my shoulder fall from its joint, and let my arm with its bones be broken.
23. For I have always feared God as waves swelling over me, and his weight I was not able to bear.
24. If I have thought gold my strength, and have said to fine gold: My confidence:
25. If I have rejoiced over my great riches, and because my hand had gotten much.
26. If I beheld the sun when it shined, and the moon going in brightness:
27. And my heart in secret hath rejoiced, and I have kissed my hand with my mouth:
28. Which is a very great iniquity, and a denial against the most high God.
