37 Then I could explain everything I have done. I could come to God with my head held high like a prince.
38 “I did not use my land in a wrong way. I never caused it to suffer.
39 I always paid the workers for the food I got from the land. I never let any of them starve.
40 If I ever did any of these bad things, let thorns and weeds grow in my fields instead of wheat and barley!” Job’s words are finished.
