Job 31:24–30

24 If I placed my confidence in gold

or called fine gold my trust,f

25 if I have rejoiced because my wealth is great

or because my own hand has acquired so much,

26 if I have gazed at the sun when it was shining

or at the moon moving in splendor,g

27 so that my heart was secretly enticed

and I threw them a kiss,A

28 this would also be an iniquity deserving punishment,

for I would have denied God above.

29 Have I rejoiced over my enemy’s distress,

or become excited when trouble came his way?

30 I have not allowed my mouth to sin

by asking for his life with a curse.
