4. Does he not see my ways,and number all my steps?
5. If I have walked in falsehoodand my foot has hastened to deceit,
6. Let God weigh me in the scales of justice;thus will he know my innocence!
7. If my steps have turned out of the way,and my heart has followed my eyes,or any stain clings to my hands,
8. Then may I sow, but another eat,and may my produce be rooted up!
9. If my heart has been enticed toward a woman,and I have lain in wait at my neighbor’s door;
10. Then may my wife grind for another,and may others kneel over her!
11. For that would be heinous,a crime to be condemned,
12. A fire that would consume down to Abaddontill it uprooted all my crops.
13. Had I refused justice to my manservantor to my maidservant, when they had a complaint against me,
14. What then should I do when God rises up?What could I answer when he demands an account?
