Musar zu Ijow 11:14

אִם־אָ֣וֶן בְּ֭יָדְךָ הַרְחִיקֵ֑הוּ וְאַל־תַּשְׁכֵּ֖ן בְּאֹהָלֶ֣יךָ עַוְלָֽה׃

Wenn du die Untat aus deiner Hand entfernst und in deinen Zelten kein Unrecht behältst:

Mesilat Yesharim

For many have reached piety in various branches of piety but in the matter of hating bribes (i.e. dishonest gains), they are unable to reach the place of Shelemut (wholeness/perfection). This is what Tzofar HaNaamati told Job: "if iniquity be in your hand, put it far away, and do not permit injustice to dwell in your tents; surely then you shall lift up your face without a blemish; you shall be steadfast and shall not fear;" (Job 11:14-15).

Kav HaYashar

If one finds a text with an error in it one must emend it, as it is written, “Do not allow injustice to dwell in your tent” (Iyov 11:14). Nevertheless, one must not make emendations based on judgment alone. The Ramban, z”l, writes (Baba Basra 134a), “The hand that erases texts without clear proofs should be cut off and the curse of the rabbis will be upon that hand so that it will be cut off.”
