## Job 31:24-25 in Context (Verses 21–28 KJV)
 
 [21 ](/kjv/job/31/21) If I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless, when I saw my help in the gate:
 
 [22 ](/kjv/job/31/22) *Then* let mine arm fall from my shoulder blade, and mine arm be broken from the bone.*
 
 [23 ](/kjv/job/31/23) For destruction *from* God *was* a terror to me, and by reason of his highness I could not endure.
 
 [24 ](/kjv/job/31/24) If I have made gold my hope, or have said to the fine gold, *Thou art* my confidence;
 
 [25 ](/kjv/job/31/25) If I rejoiced because my wealth *was* great, and because mine hand had gotten much;*
 
 [26 ](/kjv/job/31/26) If I beheld the sun when it shined, or the moon walking *in* brightness;**
 
 [27 ](/kjv/job/31/27) And my heart hath been secretly enticed, or my mouth hath kissed my hand:*
 
 [28 ](/kjv/job/31/28) This also *were* an iniquity *to be punished by* the judge: for I should have denied the God *that is* above.
 
[Job 30](/kjv/job/30) [Job 32](/kjv/job/32)
