Bible in Basic English
"If I have gone in false ways, or my foot has been quick in working deceit;"
— Job 31:5, Bible in Basic English
“ If I have walked with falsehood, And my foot hath hasted to deceit ”
For what is God's reward from on high, or the heritage given by the Ruler of all from heaven?
Is it not trouble for the sinner, and destruction for the evil-doers?
Does he not see my ways, and are not my steps all numbered?
If I have gone in false ways, or my foot has been quick in working deceit;
(Let me be measured in upright scales, and let God see my righteousness:)
If my steps have been turned out of the way, or if my heart went after my eyes, or if the property of another is in my hands;
Let me put seed in the earth for another to have the fruit of it, and let my produce be uprooted.
