Job 31:35-40
35
(“Oh, that I had someone to hear me!
I sign now my defense—let the Almighty answer me;
let my accuser put his indictment in writing.
36
Surely I would wear it on my shoulder,
I would put it on like a crown.
37
I would give him an account of my every step;
like a prince I would approach him.)—
38
“if my land cries out against me
and all its furrows are wet with tears,
39
if I have devoured its yield without payment
or broken the spirit of its tenants,
40
then let briers come up instead of wheat
and weeds instead of barley.”
The words of Job are ended.
