Job 31:9-15 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

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?

15. Did not he who made me in the belly make him?Did not the same One fashion us in the womb?
