- JOB 31:16–23, engwebp
16“If I have withheld the poor from their desire, or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail,
17or 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, I have guided her from my mother’s womb);
19if I have seen any perish for want of clothing, or that the needy had no covering;
20if his heart hasn’t blessed me, if he hasn’t been warmed with my sheep’s fleece;
21if I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless, because I saw my help in the gate;
22then let my shoulder fall from the shoulder blade, and my arm be broken from the bone.
23For calamity from God is a terror to me. Because of his majesty, I can do nothing.
