4Will he not see my way, And number all my steps?

5But if I had gone with scorners, And if too my foot has hastened to deceit

— Job 31:6 —

7If my foot has turned aside out of the way, Or if my heart has followed mine eye, And if too I have touched gifts with my hands;

8Then let me sow, and let others eat; And let me be uprooted on the earth.
