Oh that I had one to hear me! (Lo, here is my signature, let the Almighty answer me) Andthat I hadthe indictment which mine adversary hath written!
Surely I would carry it upon my shoulder; I would bind it unto me as a crown:
I would declare unto him the number of my steps; As a prince would I go near unto him.
If my land crieth out against me, And the furrows thereof weep together;
If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, Or have caused the owners thereof to lose their life:
Let thistles grow instead of wheat, And cockle instead of barley. The words of Job are ended.
