"if I have used its fruits for nothing but money and have afflicted the souls of its tillers, "
— Job 31:39, Catholic Public Domain Version
“If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, or have caused the owners thereof to lose their life:”
“If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, Or have caused the owners thereof to lose their life: ”
“if I have eaten its fruits without money, or have caused its owners to lose their life,”
“if I have eaten its produce without paying, or caused the death of its owners,”
“If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, and have afflicted the son of the tillers thereof:”
“If I have taken its produce without payment, causing the death of its owners;”
“If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, or have caused the owners thereof to lose their life:”
which I would then carry on my shoulder and wrap around me like a crown?
With each of my steps, I would pronounce and offer it, as if to a prince.
So, if my land cries out against me, and if its furrows weep with it,
if I have used its fruits for nothing but money and have afflicted the souls of its tillers,
then, may thistles spring forth for me instead of grain, and thorns instead of barley. (This ended the words of Job.)
