"Or have eaten my morsel alone, And the fatherless hath not eaten thereof "
— Job 31:17, American Standard Version
“Or have eaten my morsel myself alone, and the fatherless hath not eaten thereof;”
“or have eaten my morsel alone, and the fatherless has not eaten of it”
“If I ate my morsel of bread myself, and did not share any of it with orphans–”
“If I have eaten my morsel alone, and the fatherless hath not eaten thereof:”
“If I kept my food for myself, and did not give some of it to the child with no father;”
“Or have eaten my morsel myself alone, and the fatherless hath not eaten thereof;”
What then shall I do when God riseth up? And when he visiteth, what shall I answer him?
Did not he that made me in the womb make him? And did not one fashion us in the womb?
If I have withheld the poor fromtheirdesire, Or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail,
Or have eaten my morsel alone, And the fatherless hath not eaten thereof
(Nay, from my youth he grew up with me as with a father, And her have I guided from my mother’s womb);
If I have seen any perish for want of clothing, Or that the needy had no covering;
If his loins have not blessed me, And if he hath not been warmed with the fleece of my sheep;
