Job 31:7
Job 31:7 in Multiple Translations
If my steps have turned from the path, if my heart has followed my eyes, or if impurity has stuck to my hands,
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;
If my step hath turned out of the way, And my heart walked after mine eyes, And if any spot hath cleaved to my hands:
If my steps have been turned out of the way, or if my heart went after my eyes, or if the property of another is in my hands;
If I have wandered from God's way, if I have let what I see become my desires, if there's any stain of sin on my hands,
If my steppe hath turned out of the way, or mine heart hath walked after mine eye, or if any blot hath cleaued to mine handes,
If my step doth turn aside from the way, And after mine eyes hath my heart gone, And to my hands cleaved hath blemish,
if my step has turned out of the way, if my heart walked after my eyes, if any defilement has stuck to my hands,
If my step hath turned out of the way, and my heart walked after my eyes, and if any blot hath cleaved to my hands;
If my step hath turned out of the way, and if my heart hath followed my eyes, and if a spot hath cleaved to my hands:
If it were true that I have stopped living righteously, or that I [SYN] have desired the things that I look at [MTY], or that I am guilty of any other sin,

Job 31:7 Summary
In Job 31:7, Job is essentially saying that if he has strayed from God's path or given in to sinful desires, he wants to be held accountable. This verse is about being honest with ourselves and with God about our actions and intentions, and being willing to face the consequences of our choices (as seen in Galatians 6:7-8). It's a reminder that our thoughts, words, and actions have real consequences, and that we should strive to live with integrity and purity, just like Job. By reflecting on this verse, we can examine our own lives and ask God to help us stay on the right path (Proverbs 3:5-6).
Frequently Asked Questions
What does it mean to have steps turned from the path in Job 31:7?
This phrase refers to straying from God's will and commandments, as seen in Deuteronomy 5:32-33, where the Israelites were instructed to follow God's path and not turn to the right or left.
How does the heart following the eyes relate to temptation?
In Job 31:7, the heart following the eyes implies giving in to desires and lusts, similar to what Jesus taught in Matthew 5:28, where looking at someone with lust is considered adultery in the heart.
What kind of impurity is being referred to in this verse?
The impurity mentioned in Job 31:7 can refer to various forms of sin and uncleanliness, as described in Proverbs 30:12, where the writer warns against being pure in one's own eyes yet not cleansed from sin.
How does this verse relate to accountability before God?
Job 31:7 shows Job's willingness to be held accountable by God, similar to David's prayer in Psalm 139:23-24, where he asks God to search his heart and reveal any wicked ways.
Reflection Questions
- What are some areas in my life where I may have turned from God's path, and how can I realign myself with His will?
- In what ways can I guard my heart and eyes from temptation and lust, and what strategies can I use to stay focused on God?
- What are some potential consequences of allowing impurity to stick to my hands, and how can I prioritize purity and holiness in my life?
- How can I cultivate a deeper sense of accountability before God, and what role can prayer and self-reflection play in this process?
Gill's Exposition on Job 31:7
If my step hath turned out of the way,.... The way of God, the way of his commandments, the good and right way, the way of truth and righteousness, so far as Job had knowledge of it: for, besides the
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on 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; Connected with Job 31:6. The way - of God (Job 23:11; Jeremiah 5:5). A godly life.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Job 31:7
If I have wittingly, and willingly, and customarily (as you accuse me) swerved from the way of truth and justice which God hath prescribed to me; for otherwise no man here is so just, but he sometimes takes a wrong step, . If I have let my heart loose to covet and seek after forbidden things, which mine eyes have seen; which may design either, 1. The lust of uncleanness; but of that he had spoken , and reneweth the discourse . Or rather, 2. The lust of covetousness, which is called the lust of the eyes, , partly because it is oft caused by sight, as , and partly because ofttimes all the satisfaction it gives is to please the sight, . And this sin is most legible in the following punishment, , where his loss answers to this evil gain. The phrase notes the common method and progress of sin, which is to enter by the eye to the heart, 11:9. Any blot, or blemish, to wit, any unjust gain. If I have in my hands or possession any goods gotten from others by fraud or violence, which would be a great scandal and a blot to my reputation.
Trapp's Commentary on Job 31:7
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;Ver. 7. If my step hath turned out of the way] sc. Of justice and equity, in trading and trafficking to get the mammon of unrighteousness. No; the sun might sooner be turned out of his course (as it was once said of Fabricius) than Job out of the track of truth and honesty; he had laid laws upon his feet, his eyes, and his hands too; binding them all to the good behaviour: witness the next words. And mine heart walked after mine eyes] As it doth too often, to coveting other men’ s goods; which St John calleth the lust of the eyes, 1 John 2:16. Alexander the Great called the Persian maids Dolores oculorum, the griefs of the eyes. The wedge of gold and Babylonish garment proved to be so to covetous Achan, Joshua 7:21, and Naboth’ s vineyard to that no good Ahab, 1 Kings 21:2. He was even sick of it, and could not be cured but by a salad out of it. Hence the law flatly forbiddeth men to go after the sight of their eyes and the lust of their hearts; for these are seldom sundered, Numbers 15:39 Ecclesiastes 11:9. Unruly eyes, like Jacob’ s sheep, too firmly fixed on unlawful objects, make the affections bring forth spotted fruit.
Job would, therefore, set a guard upon them, lest they should prove brokers of wickedness to the heart; as that hang by Hiram, the Adullamite, was to Judah, Genesis 38:20. There is an easy passage for evil through the eyes into the heart, saith Quintilian, Oculus et cor sunt proxenetae peccati (Hebr. Proverb). And if any blot hath cleaved to my hands] If I have been fingering that which was not fit for me to meddle with; viz. evil gotten goods, whether by bribery, usury, deceit, or the like; the very touching whereof will blot aud benumb the hands, as Pliny writeth of the fish torpedo; and as scholars know that Demosthenes, a great lawyer, by poising Harpalus’ s goblet, was tempted and swayed to favour his cause, to the great danger of his country, and his own indelible infamy.
Ellicott's Commentary on Job 31:7
(7) If my step hath turned out of the way—The form of the expression is very emphatic: the narrow way of strict integrity and righteousness. (Compare the expression applied to the first believers, Acts 9:2—men of the way.)
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Job 31:7
Verse 7. If my step hath turned out of the way] I am willing to be sifted to the uttermost-for every step of my foot, for every thought of my heart, for every look of mine eye, and for every act of my hands.
Cambridge Bible on Job 31:7
7. out of the way] i. e. the way of rectitude, set before him by God, ch. Job 23:11. This going out of the way is amplified in the next words, if mine heart walked after mine eyes, i. e. if my mind consented and yielded to the lust of the eye. By such yielding he would have fallen into deeds that would have left a “blot” or stain upon his hands; comp. Psalms 24:4.
Barnes' Notes on Job 31:7
If my step hath turned out of the way - The path in which I ought to walk - the path of virtue.
Whedon's Commentary on Job 31:7
7. The way — Used figuratively for the law of God. Mine heart — ìá here, as in many other places, denotes the will or active reason, rather than the mere feeling.
