Job 31:38-40

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

³⁸ For if my land has cried out against me and its furrows have complained together with tears [that I have no right to them],

³⁹ If I have eaten its fruits without paying for them or have caused its [rightful] owners to breathe their last,

⁴⁰ Let thistles grow instead of wheat and cockleburs instead of barley. The [controversial] words of Job [with his friends] are ended.
