New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Job 31
29 "Have I rejoiced at the extinction of my enemy, Or exulted when evil befell him?
30 "No, I have not allowed my mouth to sin By asking for his life in a curse.
31 "Have the men of my tent not said, ’Who can find one who has not been satisfied with his meat’?
32 "The alien has not lodged outside, For I have opened my doors to the traveler.
33 "Have I covered my transgressions like Adam, By hiding my iniquity in my bosom,
34 Because I feared the great multitude, And the contempt of families terrified me, And kept silent and did not go out of doors?
35 "Oh that I had one to hear me! Behold, here is my signature; Let the Almighty answer me! And the indictment which my adversary has written,
36 Surely I would carry it on my shoulder, I would bind it to myself like a crown.
37 "I would declare to Him the number of my steps; Like a prince I would approach Him.
38 "If my land cries out against me, And its furrows weep together;
39 If I have eaten its fruit without money, Or have caused its owners to lose their lives,
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
