Job 31:1

I will set no vile thing before my eyes. I hate the deeds of faithless men. They will not cling to me.

but I tell you that everyone who gazes at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart.

For the commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not covet,” and whatever other commandments there are, are all summed up in this saying, namely, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”

But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, for its lusts.

Adam wasn’t deceived, but the woman, being deceived, has fallen into disobedience;

Turn my eyes away from looking at worthless things. Revive me in your ways.

Let your eyes look straight ahead. Fix your gaze directly before you.

Don’t lust after her beauty in your heart, neither let her captivate you with her eyelids.

Behold, that which I have seen to be good and proper is for one to eat and to drink, and to enjoy good in all his labor, in which he labors under the sun, all the days of his life which God has given him; for this is his portion.

Live joyfully with the wife whom you love all the days of your life of vanity, which he has given you under the sun, all your days of vanity, for that is your portion in life, and in your labor in which you labor under the sun.

For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, isn’t the Father’s, but is the world’s.

Gaal the son of Ebed said, “Who is Abimelech, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him? Isn’t he the son of Jerubbaal? Isn’t Zebul his officer? Serve the men of Hamor the father of Shechem, but why should we serve him?

When Jehu had come to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it; and she painted her eyes, and adorned her head, and looked out at the window.

Blessed is the man who makes Yahweh his trust, and doesn’t respect the proud, nor such as turn away to lies.

He who walks righteously and speaks blamelessly, he who despises the gain of oppressions, who gestures with his hands, refusing to take a bribe, who stops his ears from hearing of blood, and shuts his eyes from looking at evil—

but I tell you that whoever puts away his wife, except for the cause of sexual immorality, makes her an adulteress; and whoever marries her when she is put away commits adultery.

He said to them, “Beware! Keep yourselves from covetousness, for a man’s life doesn’t consist of the abundance of the things which he possesses.”

Therefore as sin entered into the world through one man, and death through sin; so death passed to all men, because all sinned.

What shall we say then? Is the law sin? May it never be! However, I wouldn’t have known sin, except through the law. For I wouldn’t have known coveting, unless the law had said, “You shall not covet.”

It shall be to you for a fringe, that you may see it, and remember all Yahweh’s commandments, and do them; and that you don’t follow your own heart and your own eyes, after which you used to play the prostitute;

You shall burn the engraved images of their gods with fire. You shall not covet the silver or the gold that is on them, nor take it for yourself, lest you be snared in it; for it is an abomination to Yahweh your God.

It shall be, if you have no delight in her, then you shall let her go where she desires; but you shall not sell her at all for money. You shall not deal with her as a slave, because you have humbled her.

When you build a new house, then you shall make a railing around your roof, so that you don’t bring blood on your house if anyone falls from there.

When she had brought them near to him to eat, he took hold of her, and said to her, “Come, lie with me, my sister!”

My soul is laid low in the dust. Revive me according to your word!

But as for those who turn away to their crooked ways, Yahweh will lead them away with the workers of iniquity. Peace be on Israel.

The fear of Yahweh is to hate evil. I hate pride, arrogance, the evil way, and the perverse mouth.

Sheol and Abaddon are never satisfied; and a man’s eyes are never satisfied.

Rejoice, young man, in your youth, and let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth, and walk in the ways of your heart, and in the sight of your eyes; but know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment.

For I don’t know what I am doing. For I don’t practice what I desire to do; but what I hate, that I do.

Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil. Cling to that which is good.

Then the lust, when it has conceived, bears sin. The sin, when it is full grown, produces death.

Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the land, saw her. He took her, lay with her, and humbled her.

After these things, his master’s wife set her eyes on Joseph; and she said, “Lie with me.”

“You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s.”

Samson went down to Timnah, and saw a woman in Timnah of the daughters of the Philistines.

As soon as she saw them, she lusted after them and sent messengers to them into Chaldea.
