Job 31:38 in context

Job 31:35–40

35

oh that I had one to hear me!

Behold, here is my signature! Let the Almighty answer me!

Let the accuser write my indictment!

36

Surely I would carry it on my shoulder,

and I would bind it to me as a crown.

37

I would declare to him the number of my steps.

I would go near to him like a prince.

38
Selected verse

If my land cries out against me,

and its furrows weep together;

39

if I have eaten its fruits without money,

or have caused its owners to lose their life,

40

let briers grow instead of wheat,

and stinkweed instead of barley.”

The words of Job are ended.
