JOB-31:1 I made a covenant with mine eyes; why then should I
think upon a maid?
JOB-31:2 For what portion of God [is there] from above? and
[what] inheritance of the Almighty from on high?
JOB-31:3 [Is] not destruction to the wicked? and a strange
[punishment] to the workers of iniquity?
JOB-31:4 Doth not he see my ways, and count all my steps?
JOB-31:5 If I have walked with vanity, or if my foot hath hasted
to deceit;
JOB-31:6 Let me be weighed in an even balance that God may know
mine integrity.
JOB-31:7 If my step hath turned out of the way, and mine heart
walked after mine eyes, and if any blot hath cleaved to mine
hands;
JOB-31:8 [Then] let me sow, and let another eat; yea, let my
offspring be rooted out.
JOB-31:9 If mine heart have been deceived by a woman, or [if] I
have laid wait at my neighbour's door;
JOB-31:10 [Then] let my wife grind unto another, and let others
bow down upon her.
JOB-31:11 For this [is] an heinous crime; yea, it [is] an
iniquity [to be punished by] the judges.
JOB-31:12 For it [is] a fire [that] consumeth to destruction,
and would root out all mine increase.
JOB-31:13 If I did despise the cause of my manservant or of my
maidservant, when they contended with me;
JOB-31:14 What then shall I do when God riseth up? and when he
visiteth, what shall I answer him?
JOB-31:15 Did not he that made me in the womb make him? and did
not one fashion us in the womb?
JOB-31:16 If I have withheld the poor from [their] desire, or
have caused the eyes of the widow to fail;
JOB-31:17 Or have eaten my morsel myself alone, and the
fatherless hath not eaten thereof;
JOB-31:18 (For from my youth he was brought up with me, as
[with] a father, and I have guided her from my mother's womb;)
JOB-31:19 If I have seen any perish for want of clothing, or any
poor without covering;
JOB-31:20 If his loins have not blessed me, and [if] he were
[not] warmed with the fleece of my sheep;
JOB-31:21 If I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless,
when I saw my help in the gate:
JOB-31:22 [Then] let mine arm fall from my shoulder blade, and
mine arm be broken from the bone.
JOB-31:23 For destruction [from] God [was] a terror to me, and
by reason of his highness I could not endure.
JOB-31:24 If I have made gold my hope, or have said to the fine
gold, [Thou art] my confidence;
JOB-31:25 If I rejoiced because my wealth [was] great, and
because mine hand had gotten much;
JOB-31:26 If I beheld the sun when it shined, or the moon
walking [in] brightness;
JOB-31:27 And my heart hath been secretly enticed, or my mouth
hath kissed my hand:
JOB-31:28 This also [were] an iniquity [to be punished by] the
judge: for I should have denied the God [that is] above.
JOB-31:29 If I rejoiced at the destruction of him that hated me,
or lifted up myself when evil found him:
JOB-31:30 Neither have I suffered my mouth to sin by wishing a
curse to his soul.
JOB-31:31 If the men of my tabernacle said not, Oh that we had
of his flesh! we cannot be satisfied.
JOB-31:32 The stranger did not lodge in the street: [but] I
opened my doors to the traveller.
JOB-31:33 If I covered my transgressions as Adam, by hiding mine
iniquity in my bosom:
JOB-31:34 Did I fear a great multitude, or did the contempt of
families terrify me, that I kept silence, [and] went not out of
the door?
JOB-31:35 Oh that one would hear me! behold, my desire [is,
that] the Almighty would answer me, and [that] mine adversary
had written a book.
JOB-31:36 Surely I would take it upon my shoulder, [and] bind it
[as] a crown to me.
JOB-31:37 I would declare unto him the number of my steps; as a
prince would I go near unto him.
JOB-31:38 If my land cry against me, or that the furrows
likewise thereof complain;
JOB-31:39 If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, or
have caused the owners thereof to lose their life:
JOB-31:40 Let thistles grow instead of wheat, and cockle instead
of barley. The words of Job are ended.
