"if I have rejoiced over my great success, and over the many things my hand has obtained; "
— Job 31:25, Catholic Public Domain Version
“If I rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because mine hand had gotten much;”
“If I have rejoiced because my wealth was great, And because my hand had gotten much; ”
“If I have rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because my hand had gotten much;”
“if I have rejoiced because of the extent of my wealth, or because of the great wealth my hand had gained,”
“If I have rejoiced over my great riches, and because my hand had gotten much.”
“If I was glad because my wealth was great, and because my hand had got together a great store;”
“If I rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because mine hand had gotten much;”
then may my shoulder fall from its joint, and may my arm, with all its bones, be broken.
For I have always feared God, like waves flowing over me, whose weight I was unable to bear.
If I have considered gold to be my strength, or if I have called purified gold ‘my Trust;’
if I have rejoiced over my great success, and over the many things my hand has obtained;
if I gazed upon the sun when it shined and the moon advancing brightly,
so that my heart rejoiced in secret and I kissed my hand with my mouth,
which is a very great iniquity and a denial against the most high God;
