# General Information:
Job continues speaking.
This chapter is a continuation of Job's statement and it is directly addressed to Yahweh. Job presents his case to Yahweh that he is upright and not guilty of the sins he is being accused of.
# I have made a covenant with my eyes
Job speaks of making a promise about what he would look at as though his eyes were a person and he made a covenant with them. Alternate translation: "I have made a firm promise about what I will look at" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-personification]])
# I have made a covenant with my eyes
What job promised can be stated clearly. Alternate translation: "I made a promise that I will not look lustfully on a virgin" or "I promised that I will not look lustfully on a virgin" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
"I have made a firm promise about what I will look at" or "I made a promise that I will not look lustfully on a virgin"
# how then should I look with desire on a virgin?
Job uses this question to emphasize that he would never break his promise. Alternate translation: "So I certainly will not look with lust at a virgin." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion]])
"So I certainly will not look with lust at a virgin."
