## Job 31:1-4 in Context (Verses 1–7 KJV)
 
 [1 ](/kjv/job/31/1) I made a covenant with mine eyes; why then should I think upon a maid?
 
 [2 ](/kjv/job/31/2) For what portion of God *is there* from above? and *what* inheritance of the Almighty from on high?
 
 [3 ](/kjv/job/31/3) *Is* not destruction to the wicked? and a strange *punishment* to the workers of iniquity?
 
 [4 ](/kjv/job/31/4) Doth not he see my ways, and count all my steps?
 
 [5 ](/kjv/job/31/5) If I have walked with vanity, or if my foot hath hasted to deceit;
 
 [6 ](/kjv/job/31/6) Let me be weighed in an even balance, that God may know mine integrity.*
 
 [7 ](/kjv/job/31/7) 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;
 
[Job 30](/kjv/job/30) [Job 32](/kjv/job/32)
