Job 31:1-4
English Standard Version
Job's Final Appeal
31 “I have made a covenant with my (A)eyes;
how then could I gaze at a virgin?
2 What would be (B)my portion from God above
and (C)my heritage from the Almighty on high?
3 Is not calamity for the unrighteous,
and disaster for the workers of iniquity?
4 (D)Does not he see my ways
and (E)number all my steps?
Job 31:1-4
International Standard Version
Job Asserts His Moral Innocence
31 “I made a covenant with my eyes;
how, then, can I focus my attention on a virgin?
2 What would I have[a] from God above,
what heritage from the Almighty on high,
3 if not calamity that is due the unjust,
and misfortune that is due those who practice iniquity?
4 He watches my life,
observing every one of my actions,[b] does he not?”
