Bible verse
For that would be a heinous crime, an iniquity to be judged.
Job 31:11 · BSB
The verses around it, from Job 31.
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?
15 Did not He who made me in the womb also make them? Did not the same One form us in the womb?
