Job 31
American Standard Version
1I made a covenant with mine eyes; How then should I look upon a virgin?
2For what is the portion from God above, And the heritage from the Almighty on high?
3Is it not calamity to the unrighteous, And disaster to the workers of iniquity?
4Doth not he see my ways, And number all my steps?
5If I have walked with falsehood, And my foot hath hasted to deceit
6(Let me be weighed in an even balance, That God may know mine integrity);
7If my step hath turned out of the way, And my heart walked after mine eyes, And if any spot hath cleaved to my hands:
8Then let me sow, and let another eat; Yea, let the produce of my field be rooted out.
9If my heart hath been enticed unto a woman, And I have laid wait at my neighbor’s door;
10Then let my wife grind unto another, And let others bow down upon her.
11For that were a heinous crime; Yea, it were an iniquity to be punished by the judges:
12For it is a fire that consumeth unto Destruction, And would root out all mine increase.
13If I have despised the cause of my man-servant or of my maid-servant, When they contended with me;
14What then shall I do when God riseth up? And when he visiteth, what shall I answer him?
15Did not he that made me in the womb make him? And did not one fashion us in the womb?
