Job 31:7-15 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

7. If my step hath turned out of the way, and if my heart hath followed my eyes, and if a spot hath cleaved to my hands:

8. Then let me sow and let another eat: and let my offspring be rooted out.

9. If my heart hath been deceived upon a woman, and if I have laid wait at my friend's door:

10. Let my wife be the harlot of another, and let other men lie with her.

11. For this is a heinous crime, and a most grievous iniquity.

12. It is a fire that devoureth even to destruction, and rooteth up all things that spring.

13. If I have despised to abide judgment with my manservant, or my maidservant, when they had any controversy against me:

14. For what shall I do when God shall rise to judge? and when he shall examine, what shall I answer him?

15. Did not he that made me in the womb make him also: and did not one and the same form me in the womb?
