Job 31:12

Job 31:12

Compare all

10 Then let my wife grind for ^aanother,
And let others bow down over her.

11 For that would be wickedness;
Yes, ^ait would be iniquity deserving of judgment.

12 For that would be a fire that consumes to destruction,
And would root out all my increase.

13 “If I have ^adespised the cause of my male or female servant
When they complained against me,

14 What then shall I do when ^aGod rises up?
When He punishes, how shall I answer Him?

John Wesley's Notes

<< Job 31:11

Job 31:13 >>

Destruction - Lust is a fire in the soul; it consumes all that is good there, the convictions, the comforts; and lays the conscience waste. It consumes the body, consumes the substance, roots out all the increase. It kindles the fire of God's wrath, which if not quenched by the blood of Christ, will burn to the lowest hell.
