American Standard Version
"And my heart hath been secretly enticed, And my mouth hath kissed my hand: "
— Job 31:27, American Standard Version
“And my heart hath been secretly enticed, or my mouth hath kissed my hand:”
“and my heart has been secretly enticed, and my hand threw a kiss from my mouth,”
“so that my heart was secretly enticed, and my hand threw them a kiss from my mouth,”
“And my heart in secret hath rejoiced, and I have kissed my hand with my mouth:”
“A secret feeling of worship came into my heart, and my hand gave kisses from my mouth;”
“And my heart hath been secretly enticed, or my mouth hath kissed my hand:”
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
(Yea, I have not suffered my mouth to sin By asking his life with a curse);
