The Book of Job 31

31 I have cut a covenant with my eyes;

how then would I gaze upon a virgin?

2 For what would be the portion from God above,

or the inheritance from Shaddai in the heights?

3 Is not calamity for the unrighteous

and disaster for doers of wickedness?

4 Does he not see my ways

and count all my steps?

5 If I have walked with falsehood

or my foot has hurried to deceit—

6 let him weigh me in balances of righteousness,

and God will know my integrity—

7 if my step has turned aside from the way,

or my heart has gone after my eyes,

or a spot has stuck to my hands,

8 let me sow and may another eat,

or may my crops be uprooted!

9 If my heart has been opened by a woman

and I have lurked at the door of my neighbor,

10 may my wife grind for another,

and may others bow down upon her.

11 For that would be lewdness,

and it would be iniquity of judges.

12 For it is a fire, it consumes unto Abaddon,

and it would uproot all of my harvest.

13 If I disdained the justice of my male servant or my female servant

in their case against me,

14 then what would I do if God arose?

Or if he visited, how would I answer him?

15 Did not the one making me in the belly make him?

And did not one fashion us in the womb?

16 If I have withheld from the desire of the poor,

or I have made the eyes of the widow fail,

17 or I have eaten my morsel alone

and the fatherless did not eat from it—

18 for from my youth he has grown up with me as a father,

and from the belly of my mother I have guided her.

19 If I have seen one perishing from lack of clothing

or that there was not a covering for the needy,

20 if his loins have not blessed me

and he has not warmed himself from the wool of my sheep,

21 if I have shaken my hand against the fatherless

because I saw my help at the gate,

22 may my upper arm fall from the shoulder blade;

yes, may my arm be broken from its socket!

23 For the destruction of God was a dread to me,

and from his majesty, I was not able.

24 If I have made gold my hope

and I have said to fine gold, ‘My confidence’;

25 if I have rejoiced because my wealth was great

and because my hand had acquired much!

26 If I have seen the light when it shone

or the moon walking in splendor,

27 and my heart opened in secret

and my hand kissed my mouth,

28 this also would be iniquity of judges,

for I would have denied God above.

29 If I have rejoiced at the destruction of one hating me

or lifted myself up because evil found him!

30 For I have not caused my palate to sin

by asking for his life with a curse.

31 If the men of my tent have not said,

‘Who will give one who has not been satisfied from his flesh?’!

32 The sojourner has not stayed overnight in the outdoors;

I have opened my doors to the traveler.

33 If, like man, I have concealed my sins

by hiding my guilt in my chest,

34 because I feared the great multitude

and the contempt of the clans terrified me,

and I kept silent, I did not go out the door!

35 Who will give to me one hearing me?

Behold, my mark! May Shaddai answer me!

And the scroll that the man of my case has written?

36 If I would not bear it on my shoulder?

I would bind it to me as crowns!

37 I would declare to him an account of my steps;

I would approach him like a noble.

38 If my soil cries out against me

and its furrows weep together,

39 if I have eaten its yield without silver

or caused the breath of its masters to expire,

40 may a thorn grow instead of wheat

and a weed instead of barley!”

The words of Job have ended.
