Job 31:1-8 ▼

1 “I made a covenant with my eyes; how then should I look lustfully at a young woman?

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 Doesn’t he see my ways, and count all my steps?

5 “If I have walked with falsehood, and my foot has hurried to deceit

6 (let me be weighed in an even balance, that God may know my integrity);

7 if my step has turned out of the way, if my heart walked after my eyes, if any defilement has stuck to my hands,

8 then let me sow, and let another eat. Yes, let the produce of my field be rooted out.
