⁷
“If my step has turned away from the way [of God],
Or if my heart has [covetously] followed my eyes,
Or if any spot [of guilt] has stained my hands,
⁸ 
Then let me plant and [let] another eat [from the results of my labor],
And let my crops be uprooted and ruined. ⁹

Or if I have [covetously] lurked at my neighbor’s door [until his departure],
