"If I have beheld the sun when it shined, Or the moon walking in brightness, "
— Job 31:26, American Standard Version
“If I beheld the sun when it shined, or the moon walking in brightness;”
“if I have seen the sun when it shined, or the moon moving in splendor,”
“if I looked at the sun when it was shining, and the moon advancing as a precious thing,”
“If I beheld the sun when it shined and the moon going in brightness:”
“If, when I saw the sun shining, and the moon moving on its bright way,”
“If I beheld the sun when it shined, or the moon walking in brightness;”
For calamity from God is a terror to me, And by reason of his majesty I can do nothing.
If I have made gold my hope, And have said to the fine gold, Thou artmy confidence;
If I have rejoiced because my wealth was great, And because my hand had gotten much;
If I have beheld the sun when it shined, Or the moon walking in brightness,
And my heart hath been secretly enticed, And my mouth hath kissed my hand:
This also were an iniquity to be punished by the judges; For I should have denied the God that is above.
If I have rejoiced at the destruction of him that hated me, Or lifted up myself when evil found him
