Job 31:16-23 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

16. “If I have withheld the poor from their desire,or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail,

17. or have eaten my morsel alone,and the fatherless has not eaten of it

18. (no, from my youth he grew up with me as with a father,her I have guided from my mother’s womb);

19. if I have seen any perish for want of clothing,or that the needy had no covering;

20. if his heart hasn’t blessed me,if he hasn’t been warmed with my sheep’s fleece;

21. if I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless,because I saw my help in the gate,

22. then let my shoulder fall from the shoulder blade,and my arm be broken from the bone.

23. For calamity from God is a terror to me.Because his majesty, I can do nothing.
