Job 31:28
Compare all
26 aIf I have observed the1 sun when it shines,
Or the moon moving in brightness, 
27 So that my heart has been secretly enticed,
And my mouth has kissed my hand;
28 This also would be an iniquity deserving of judgment,
For I would have denied God who is above.
29 “Ifa I have rejoiced at the destruction of him who hated me,
Or lifted myself up when evil found him 
30 a(Indeed I have not allowed my mouth to sin
By asking for a curse on his1 soul);

Job 31:28

The judge - The civil magistrate; who being advanced and protected by God, is obliged to maintain and vindicate his honour, and consequently to punish idolatry. Denied God - Not directly but by consequence, because this was to rob God of his prerogative, by giving to the creature, that worship which is peculiar to God.
