Job 31:10

then may my own wife grind grain for another, and may other men sleep with her.

Job 31:10 · BSB

Job 31:10 in context

The verses around it, from Job 31.

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,

8 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.

11 For that would be a heinous crime, an iniquity to be judged.

12 For it is a fire that burns down to Abaddon; it would root out my entire harvest.

13 If I have rejected the cause of my manservant or maidservant when they made a complaint against me,

14 what will I do when God rises to judge? How will I answer when called to account?
