35 If only I had someone to hear my case! Here is my signature; let the Almighty answer me.Let my Opponent compose His indictment.
36 I would surely carry it on my shoulderand wear it like a crown.
37 I would give Him an account of all my steps;I would approach Him like a prince.
38 If my land cries out against meand its furrows join in weeping,
39 if I have consumed its produce without paymentor shown contempt for its tenants,
40 then let thorns grow instead of wheatand stinkweed instead of barley.The words of Job are concluded.
