Then let my wife grind for another and let others bow down over her, invoking the judgment of sexual dishonor in return for infidelity—that Job's wife become another man's servant and subject to his will. The grinding for another suggests sexual service or degradation. The bowing down over her suggests sexual subjugation. The verse specifies the reciprocal justice that should follow infidelity.
