Job 31

New Revised Standard NRS

1 "I have made a covenant with my eyes; how then could I look upon a virgin?

2 What would be my portion from God above, and my heritage from the Almighty on high?

3 Does not calamity befall the unrighteous, and disaster the workers of iniquity?

4 Does he not see my ways, and number all my steps?

5 "If I have walked with falsehood, and my foot has hurried to deceit—

6 let me be weighed in a just balance, and let God know my integrity!—

7 if my step has turned aside from the way, and my heart has followed my eyes, and if any spot has clung to my hands;

8 then let me sow, and another eat; and let what grows for me be rooted out.

9 "If my heart has been enticed by a woman, and I have lain in wait at my neighbor's door;

10 then let my wife grind for another, and let other men kneel over her.

11 For that would be a heinous crime; that would be a criminal offense;

12 for that would be a fire consuming down to Abaddon, and it would burn to the root all my harvest.

13 "If I have rejected the cause of my male or female slaves, when they brought a complaint against me;

14 what then shall I do when God rises up? When he makes inquiry, what shall I answer him?

15 Did not he who made me in the womb make them? And did not one fashion us in the womb?

16 "If I have withheld anything that the poor desired, or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail,

17 or have eaten my morsel alone, and the orphan has not eaten from it—

18 for from my youth I reared the orphan like a father, and from my mother's womb I guided the widow —

19 if I have seen anyone perish for lack of clothing, or a poor person without covering,

20 whose loins have not blessed me, and who was not warmed with the fleece of my sheep;

21 if I have raised my hand against the orphan, because I saw I had supporters at the gate;

22 then let my shoulder blade fall from my shoulder, and let my arm be broken from its socket.

23 For I was in terror of calamity from God, and I could not have faced his majesty.

24 "If I have made gold my trust, or called fine gold my confidence;

25 if I have rejoiced because my wealth was great, or because my hand had gotten much;

26 if I have looked at the sun when it shone, or the moon moving in splendor,

27 and my heart has been secretly enticed, and my mouth has kissed my hand;

28 this also would be an iniquity to be punished by the judges, for I should have been false to God above.

29 "If I have rejoiced at the ruin of those who hated me, or exulted when evil overtook them—

30 I have not let my mouth sin by asking for their lives with a curse—

31 if those of my tent ever said, "O that we might be sated with his flesh!' —

32 the stranger has not lodged in the street; I have opened my doors to the traveler—

33 if I have concealed my transgressions as others do, by hiding my iniquity in my bosom,

34 because I stood in great fear of the multitude, and the contempt of families terrified me, so that I kept silence, and did not go out of doors—

35 O that I had one to hear me! (Here is my signature! Let the Almighty answer me!) O, that I had the indictment written by my adversary!

36 Surely I would carry it on my shoulder; I would bind it on me like a crown;

37 I would give him an account of all my steps; like a prince I would approach him.

38 "If my land has cried out against me, and its furrows have wept together;

39 if I have eaten its yield without payment, and caused the death of its owners;

40 let thorns grow instead of wheat, and foul weeds instead of barley." The words of Job are ended.

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 pepigi foedus cum oculis meis ut ne cogitarem quidem de virgine

2 quam enim partem haberet Deus in me desuper et hereditatem Omnipotens de excelsis

3 numquid non perditio est iniquo et alienatio operantibus iniustitiam

4 nonne ipse considerat vias meas et cunctos gressus meos dinumerat

5 si ambulavi in vanitate et festinavit in dolo pes meus

6 adpendat me in statera iusta et sciat Deus simplicitatem meam

7 si declinavit gressus meus de via et si secutum est oculos meos cor meum et in manibus meis adhesit macula

8 seram et alius comedat et progenies mea eradicetur

9 si deceptum est cor meum super mulierem et si ad ostium amici mei insidiatus sum

10 scortum sit alteri uxor mea et super illam incurventur alii

11 hoc enim nefas est et iniquitas maxima

12 ignis est usque ad perditionem devorans et omnia eradicans genimina

13 si contempsi subire iudicium cum servo meo et ancillae meae cum disceptarent adversum me

14 quid enim faciam cum surrexerit ad iudicandum Deus et cum quaesierit quid respondebo illi

15 numquid non in utero fecit me qui et illum operatus est et formavit in vulva unus

16 si negavi quod volebant pauperibus et oculos viduae expectare feci

17 si comedi buccellam meam solus et non comedit pupillus ex ea

18 quia ab infantia mea crevit mecum miseratio et de utero matris meae egressa est mecum

19 si despexi pereuntem eo quod non habuerit indumentum et absque operimento pauperem

20 si non benedixerunt mihi latera eius et de velleribus ovium mearum calefactus est

21 si levavi super pupillum manum meam etiam cum viderem me in porta superiorem

22 umerus meus a iunctura sua cadat et brachium meum cum suis ossibus confringatur

23 semper enim quasi tumentes super me fluctus timui Deum et pondus eius ferre non potui

24 si putavi aurum robur meum et obrizae dixi fiducia mea

25 si laetatus sum super multis divitiis meis et quia plurima repperit manus mea

26 si vidi solem cum fulgeret et lunam incedentem clare

27 et lactatum est in abscondito cor meum et osculatus sum manum meam ore meo

28 quae est iniquitas maxima et negatio contra Deum altissimum

29 si gavisus sum ad ruinam eius qui me oderat et exultavi quod invenisset eum malum

30 non enim dedi ad peccandum guttur meum ut expeterem maledicens animam eius

31 si non dixerunt viri tabernaculi mei quis det de carnibus eius ut saturemur

32 foris non mansit peregrinus ostium meum viatori patuit

33 si abscondi quasi homo peccatum meum et celavi in sinu meo iniquitatem meam

34 si expavi ad multitudinem nimiam et despectio propinquorum terruit me et non magis tacui nec egressus sum ostium

35 quis mihi tribuat auditorem ut desiderium meum Omnipotens audiat et librum scribat ipse qui iudicat

36 ut in umero meo portem illum et circumdem illum quasi coronam mihi

37 per singulos gradus meos pronuntiabo illum et quasi principi offeram eum

38 si adversum me terra mea clamat et cum ipsa sulci eius deflent

39 si fructus eius comedi absque pecunia et animam agricolarum eius adflixi

40 pro frumento oriatur mihi tribulus et pro hordeo spina finita sunt verba Iob
