- a covenant:
- "That the sonsª of Godª sawª°¹ the daughtersª of menª that¹ theyª [were] fair;ª and they tookª° them wivesª of all¹¹ which¹ they chose.ª°" {Gen 6:2} + "And it came to pass¹ in an eveningtide,ªª that Davidª aroseª° from off¹¹ his bed,ª and walkedª° upon¹ the roofª of the king'sª house:ª and from¹¹ the roofª he sawª° a womanª washingª° herself; and the womanª [was] veryª beautifulª to look¹ upon.² ... And Davidª sentª° messengers,ª and tookª° her; and she came¹ in²° unto¹ him, and he layª° with her;¹ for she¹ was purifiedª° from her uncleanness:ª¹ and she returnedª° unto¹ her house.ª" {2Sm 11:2-4} + "Turn awayª° mine eyesª from beholdingª°¹ vanity;ª [and] quickenª° thou me in thy way.ª" {Psa 119:37} + "Let thine eyesª lookª° right on,ª and let thine eyelidsª look straightª° before¹ thee." {Prv 4:25} + "Lookª° not¹ thou upon the wineª when¹ it is red,ª° when¹ it givethª° his colourª in the cup,ª°² [when] it moveth²° itself¹ aright.ª ... Thine eyesª shall beholdª° strange women,ª° and thine heartª shall utterª° perverse things.ª" {Prv 23:31-33} + "Butª Iª sayª° unto you,ª Thatª whosoeverª lookethª° on a womanª to² lust¹ after²° herª hath committed adulteryª° with herª alreadyª inª his²¹ heart.ª ... Andª ifª thyª rightª eyeª offendª° thee,ª pluck²° it² out,ª°¹ andª castª° [it] fromª thee:ª forª it is profitable²°¹ for theeª thatª oneª of thyª membersª should perish,ª° andª notª [that] thyª wholeª bodyª should be castª° intoª hell.ª" {Mtt 5:28-29} + "Forª allª that¹ [is] inª the¹ world,ª the¹ lustª of the¹ flesh,ª andª the¹ lustª of the¹ eyes,ª andª the¹ prideª of life,ª isª° notª ofª the¹ Father,ª butª isª° ofª the¹ world.ª" {1Jn 2:16}
