Job 31:1-12 (ASV) | TrulyRandomVerse

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.

11

For that were a heinous crime; Yea, it were an iniquity to be punished by the judges:

12

For it is a fire that consumeth unto Destruction, And would root out all mine increase.
