Job 31:6

IntegrityTruth and honesty

4 Does He not see my ways and count my every step?

5 If I have walked in falsehood or my foot has rushed to deceit,

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,

8 then may another eat what I have sown, and may my crops be uprooted.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
