Job 31:8
6 let God weigh me with honest scales, that He may know my integrity.
7 If my steps have turned from the path, if my heart has followed my eyes, or if impurity has stuck to my hands,
then may another eat what I have sown, and may my crops be uprooted.
9 If my heart has been enticed by my neighbor’s wife, or I have lurked at his door,
10 then may my own wife grind grain for another, and may other men sleep with her.
Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
