Job 31:38-40
EasyEnglish Bible
38 I have not grown crops on land that does not belong to me.
The land itself would accuse me if that were true.
39 I have always paid for the food
that other people have worked to grow.
I have never cheated the farmers
so that they suffered.
40 If I have ever done any of those things,
then may thorn bushes grow in my fields instead of wheat.
May weeds grow in my fields instead of barley.’
That is the end of the things that Job said.

and all its furrows are wet(B) with tears,
39 if I have devoured its yield without payment(C)
or broken the spirit of its tenants,(D)

and stinkweed(F) instead of barley.”
The words of Job are ended.(G)
