Job 31

1  I made a covenant with mine eyes; How then should I look upon a virgin?

2  For what is the portion from God above, And the heritage from the Almighty on high?

3  Is it not calamity to the unrighteous, And disaster to the workers of iniquity?

4  Doth not he see my ways, And number all my steps?

5  If 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);

7  If my step hath turned out of the way, And my heart walked after mine eyes, And if any spot hath cleaved to my hands:

8  Then let me sow, and let another eat; Yea, let the produce of my field be rooted out.

9  If my heart hath been enticed unto a woman, And I have laid wait at my neighbor's door;

10  Then let my wife grind unto another, And let others bow down upon her.
