ylt@Job:31:1 @A covenant I made for mine eyes, And what -- do I attend to a virgin?

ylt@Job:31:2 @And what [is] the portion of God from above? And the inheritance of the Mighty from the heights?

ylt@Job:31:3 @Is not calamity to the perverse? And strangeness to workers of iniquity?

ylt@Job:31:4 @Doth not He see my ways, And all my steps number?

ylt@Job:31:5 @If I have walked with vanity, And my foot doth hasten to deceit,

ylt@Job:31:6 @He doth weigh me in righteous balances, And God doth know my integrity.

ylt@Job:31:7 @If my step doth turn aside from the way, And after mine eyes hath my heart gone, And to my hands cleaved hath blemish,

ylt@Job:31:8 @Let me sow -- and another eat, And my products let be rooted out.

ylt@Job:31:9 @If my heart hath been enticed by woman, And by the opening of my neighbour I laid wait,

ylt@Job:31:10 @Grind to another let my wife, And over her let others bend.

ylt@Job:31:11 @For it [is] a wicked thing, and a judicial iniquity;

ylt@Job:31:12 @For a fire it [is], to destruction it consumeth, And among all mine increase doth take root,

ylt@Job:31:13 @If I despise the cause of my man-servant, And of my handmaid, In their contending with me,

ylt@Job:31:14 @Then what do I do when God ariseth? And when He doth inspect, What do I answer Him?

ylt@Job:31:15 @Did not He that made me in the womb make him? Yea, prepare us in the womb doth One.

ylt@Job:31:16 @If I withhold from pleasure the poor, And the eyes of the widow do consume,

ylt@Job:31:17 @And I do eat my morsel by myself, And the orphan hath not eat of it,

ylt@Job:31:18 @(But from my youth He grew up with me as [with] a father, And from the belly of my mother I am led.)

ylt@Job:31:19 @If I see [any] perishing without clothing, And there is no covering to the needy,

ylt@Job:31:20 @If his loins have not blessed me, And from the fleece of my sheep He doth not warm himself,

ylt@Job:31:21 @If I have waved at the fatherless my hand, When I see in [him] the gate of my court,

ylt@Job:31:22 @My shoulder from its blade let fall, And mine arm from the bone be broken.

ylt@Job:31:23 @For a dread unto me [is] calamity [from] God, And because of His excellency I am not able.

ylt@Job:31:24 @If I have made gold my confidence, And to the pure gold have said, 'My trust,'

ylt@Job:31:25 @If I rejoice because great [is] my wealth, And because abundance hath my hand found,

ylt@Job:31:26 @If I see the light when it shineth, And the precious moon walking,

ylt@Job:31:27 @And my heart is enticed in secret, And my hand doth kiss my mouth,

ylt@Job:31:28 @It also [is] a judicial iniquity, For I had lied to God above.

ylt@Job:31:29 @If I rejoice at the ruin of my hater, And stirred up myself when evil found him,

ylt@Job:31:30 @Yea, I have not suffered my mouth to sin, To ask with an oath his life.

ylt@Job:31:31 @If not -- say ye, O men of my tent, 'O that we had of his flesh, we are not satisfied.'

ylt@Job:31:32 @In the street doth not lodge a stranger, My doors to the traveller I open.

ylt@Job:31:33 @If I have covered as Adam my transgressions, To hide in my bosom mine iniquity,

ylt@Job:31:34 @Because I fear a great multitude, And the contempt of families doth affright me, Then I am silent, I go not out of the opening.

ylt@Job:31:35 @Who giveth to me a hearing? lo, my mark. The Mighty One doth answer me, And a bill hath mine adversary written.

ylt@Job:31:36 @If not -- on my shoulder I take it up, I bind it a crown on myself.

ylt@Job:31:37 @The number of my steps I tell Him, As a leader I approach Him.

ylt@Job:31:38 @If against me my land doth cry out, And together its furrows weep,

ylt@Job:31:39 @If its strength I consumed without money, And the life of its possessors, I have caused to breathe out,

ylt@Job:31:40 @Instead of wheat let a thorn go forth, And instead of barley a useless weed! The words of Job are finished.
