    31:1 I made a covenant with mine eyes; and how should I fix my regard upon a maid?

    31:2 For what would have been [my] portion of +God from above, and what the heritage of the Almighty from on high?

    31:3 Is not calamity for the unrighteous? and misfortune for the workers of iniquity?

    31:4 Doth not he see my ways, and number all my steps?

    31:5 If I have walked with falsehood, and my foot hath hasted to deceit,

    31:6 (Let me be weighed in an even balance, and +God will take knowledge of my blamelessness;)

    31:7 If my step have turned out of the way, and my heart followed mine eyes, and if any blot cleaveth to my hands;

    31:8 Let me sow, and another eat; and let mine offspring be rooted out.

    31:9 If my heart have been enticed unto a woman, so that I laid wait at my neighbour's door,

    31:10 Let my wife grind for another, and let others bow down upon her.

    31:11 For this is an infamy; yea, it is an iniquity [to be judged by] the judges:

    31:12 For it is a fire that consumeth to destruction, and would root out all mine increase.

    31:13 If I have despised the cause of my bondman or of my bondmaid, when they contended with me,

    31:14 What then should I do when łGod riseth up? and if he visited, what should I answer him?

    31:15 Did not he that made me in the womb make him? and did not One fashion us in the womb?

    31:16 If I have withheld the poor from [their] desire, or caused the eyes of the widow to fail;

    31:17 Or have eaten my morsel alone, so that the fatherless ate not thereof,

    31:18 (For from my youth he grew up with me as with a father, and I have guided the [widow] from my mother's womb;)

    31:19 If I have seen any perishing for want of clothing, or any needy without covering;

    31:20 If his loins have not blessed me, and if he were not warmed with the fleece of my lambs;

    31:21 If I have lifted up my hand against an orphan, because I saw my help in the gate:

    31:22 [Then] let my shoulder fall from the shoulder-blade, and mine arm be broken from the bone!

    31:23 For calamity from łGod was a terror to me, and by reason of his excellency I was powerless.

    31:24 If I have made gold my hope, or said to the fine gold, My confidence!

    31:25 If I rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because my hand had gotten much;

    31:26 If I beheld the sun when it shone, or the moon walking in brightness,

    31:27 And my heart have been secretly enticed, so that my mouth kissed my hand:

    31:28 This also would be an iniquity for the judge, for I should have denied the łGod who is above.

    31:29 If I rejoiced at the destruction of him that hated me, and exulted when evil befell him;

    31:30 (Neither have I suffered my mouth to sin by asking his life with a curse;)

    31:31 If the men of my tent said not, Who shall find one that hath not been satisfied with his meat? --

    31:32 The stranger did not lodge without; I opened my doors to the pathway.

    31:33 If I covered my transgressions as Adam, by hiding mine iniquity in my bosom,

    31:34 Because I feared the great multitude, and the contempt of families terrified me, so that I kept silence, and went not out of the door, ...

    31:35 Oh that I had one to hear me! Behold my signature: let the Almighty answer me! And let mine opponent write an accusation!

    31:36 Would I not take it upon my shoulder? I would bind it on to me [as] a crown;

    31:37 I would declare unto him the number of my steps; as a prince would I come near to him.

    31:38 If my land cry out against me, and its furrows weep together;

    31:39 If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, and have tormented to death the souls of its owners:

    31:40 Let thistles grow instead of wheat, and tares instead of barley. The words of Job are ended.
