## Job 31:17-18 in Context (Verses 14–21 KJV)
 
 [14 ](/kjv/job/31/14) What then shall I do when God riseth up? and when he visiteth, what shall I answer him?
 
 [15 ](/kjv/job/31/15) Did not he that made me in the womb make him? and did not one fashion us in the womb?*
 
 [16 ](/kjv/job/31/16) If I have withheld the poor from *their* desire, or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail;
 
 [17 ](/kjv/job/31/17) Or have eaten my morsel myself alone, and the fatherless hath not eaten thereof;
 
 [18 ](/kjv/job/31/18) (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 ](/kjv/job/31/19) If I have seen any perish for want of clothing, or any poor without covering;
 
 [20 ](/kjv/job/31/20) If his loins have not blessed me, and *if* he were *not* warmed with the fleece of my sheep;
 
 [21 ](/kjv/job/31/21) If I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless, when I saw my help in the gate:
