| 1 | I made an agreement with my eyes; how then might my eyes be looking on a virgin? | I made a covenant with mine eyes; why then should I think upon a maid? |
| 2 | For what is God's reward from on high, or the heritage given by the Ruler of all from heaven? | For what portion of God is there from above? and what inheritance of the Almighty from on high? |
| 3 | Is it not trouble for the sinner, and destruction for the evil-doers? | Is not destruction to the wicked? and a strange punishment to the workers of iniquity? |
| 4 | Does he not see my ways, and are not my steps all numbered? | Doth not he see my ways, and count all my steps? |
| 5 | If I have gone in false ways, or my foot has been quick in working deceit; | If I have walked with vanity, or if my foot hath hasted to deceit; |
| 6 | (Let me be measured in upright scales, and let God see my righteousness:) | Let me be weighed in an even balance, that God may know mine integrity. |
| 7 | If my steps have been turned out of the way, or if my heart went after my eyes, or if the property of another is in my hands; | If my step hath turned out of the way, and mine heart walked after mine eyes, and if any blot hath cleaved to mine hands; |
| 8 | Let me put seed in the earth for another to have the fruit of it, and let my produce be uprooted. | Then let me sow, and let another eat; yea, let my offspring be rooted out. |
| 9 | If my heart went after another man's wife, or if I was waiting secretly at my neighbour's door; | If mine heart have been deceived by a woman, or if I have laid wait at my neighbour’s door; |
| 10 | Then let my wife give pleasure to another man and let others make use of her body. | Then let my wife grind unto another, and let others bow down upon her. |
| 11 | For that would be a crime; it would be an act for which punishment would be measured out by the judges: | For this is an heinous crime; yea, it is an iniquity to be punished by the judges. |
| 12 | It would be a fire burning even to destruction, and taking away all my produce. | For it is a fire that consumeth to destruction, and would root out all mine increase. |
| 13 | If I did wrong in the cause of my man-servant, or my woman-servant, when they went to law with me; | If I did despise the cause of my manservant or of my maidservant, when they contended with me; |
| 14 | What then will I do when God comes as my judge? and what answer may I give to his questions? | What then shall I do when God riseth up? and when he visiteth, what shall I answer him? |
| 15 | Did not God make him as well as me? did he not give us life in our mothers' bodies? | Did not he that made me in the womb make him? and did not one fashion us in the womb? |
| 16 | If I kept back the desire of the poor; if the widow's eye was looking for help to no purpose; | If I have withheld the poor from their desire, or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail; |
| 17 | If I kept my food for myself, and did not give some of it to the child with no father; | Or have eaten my morsel myself alone, and the fatherless hath not eaten thereof; |
| 18 | (For I was cared for by God as by a father from my earliest days; he was my guide from the body of my mother;) | (For from my youth he was brought up with me, as with a father, and I have guided her from my mother’s womb;) |
| 19 | If I saw one near to death for need of clothing, and that the poor had nothing covering him; | If I have seen any perish for want of clothing, or any poor without covering; |
| 20 | If his back did not give me a blessing, and the wool of my sheep did not make him warm; | If his loins have not blessed me, and if he were not warmed with the fleece of my sheep; |
| 21 | If my hand had been lifted up against him who had done no wrong, when I saw that I was supported by the judges; | If I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless, when I saw my help in the gate: |
| 22 | May my arm be pulled from my body, and be broken from its base. | Then let mine arm fall from my shoulder blade, and mine arm be broken from the bone. |
| 23 | For the fear of God kept me back, and because of his power I might not do such things. | For destruction from God was a terror to me, and by reason of his highness I could not endure. |
| 24 | If I made gold my hope, or if I ever said to the best gold, I have put my faith in you; | If I have made gold my hope, or have said to the fine gold, Thou art my confidence; |
| 25 | If I was glad because my wealth was great, and because my hand had got together a great store; | If I rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because mine hand had gotten much; |
| 26 | If, when I saw the sun shining, and the moon moving on its bright way, | If I beheld the sun when it shined, or the moon walking in brightness; |
| 27 | A secret feeling of worship came into my heart, and my hand gave kisses from my mouth; | And my heart hath been secretly enticed, or my mouth hath kissed my hand: |
| 28 | That would have been another sin to be rewarded with punishment by the judges; for I would have been false to God on high. | This also were an iniquity to be punished by the judge: for I should have denied the God that is above. |
| 29 | If I was glad at the trouble of my hater, and gave cries of joy when evil overtook him; | If I rejoiced at the destruction of him that hated me, or lifted up myself when evil found him: |
| 30 | (For I did not let my mouth give way to sin, in putting a curse on his life;) | Neither have I suffered my mouth to sin by wishing a curse to his soul. |
| 31 | If the men of my tent did not say, Who has not had full measure of his meat? | If the men of my tabernacle said not, Oh that we had of his flesh! we cannot be satisfied. |
| 32 | The traveller did not take his night's rest in the street, and my doors were open to anyone on a journey; | The stranger did not lodge in the street: but I opened my doors to the traveller. |
| 33 | If I kept my evil doings covered, and my sin in the secret of my breast, | If I covered my transgressions as Adam, by hiding mine iniquity in my bosom: |
| 34 | For fear of the great body of people, or for fear that families might make sport of me, so that I kept quiet, and did not go out of my door; | Did I fear a great multitude, or did the contempt of families terrify me, that I kept silence, and went not out of the door? |
| 35 | If only God would give ear to me, and the Ruler of all would give me an answer! or if what he has against me had been put in writing! | Oh that one would hear me! behold, my desire is, that the Almighty would answer me, and that mine adversary had written a book. |
| 36 | Truly I would take up the book in my hands; it would be to me as a crown; | Surely I would take it upon my shoulder, and bind it as a crown to me. |
| 37 | I would make clear the number of my steps, I would put it before him like a prince! The words of Job are ended. | I would declare unto him the number of my steps; as a prince would I go near unto him. |
| 38 | If my land has made an outcry against me, or the ploughed earth has been in sorrow; | If my land cry against me, or that the furrows likewise thereof complain; |
| 39 | If I have taken its produce without payment, causing the death of its owners; | If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, or have caused the owners thereof to lose their life: |
| 40 | Then in place of grain let thorns come up, and in place of barley evil-smelling plants. | Let thistles grow instead of wheat, and cockle instead of barley. The words of Job are ended. |
