1 I have made a covenant with my eyes. How then could I look at a young woman? 2 For what portion *would I have from God above, or what inheritance from the Almighty on high? 3 Doesn't disaster come to the wicked and misfortune to evildoers? 4 Does He not see my ways and number all my steps? 5 If I have walked in falsehood or my foot has rushed to deceit, 6 let God weigh me with an accurate balance, and He will recognize my integrity. 7 If my step has turned from the way, my heart has followed my eyes, or impurity has stained my hands, 8 let someone else eat what I have sown, and let my crops be uprooted. 9 If my heart has been seduced by *my neighbor's wife or I have lurked at his door, 10 let my own wife grind *grain for another man, and let other men sleep with her. 11 For that would be a disgrace; it would be a crime deserving punishment. 12 For it is a fire that consumes down to Abaddon; it would destroy my entire harvest. 13 If I have dismissed the case of my male or female servants when they made a complaint against me, 14 what could I do when God stands up *to judge ?
