40Instead of wheat let a thorn go forth, And instead of barley a useless weed! The words of Job are finished.


In Context

37 The number of my steps I tell Him, As a leader I approach Him.

38 If against me my land doth cry out, And together its furrows weep,

39 If its strength I consumed without money, And the life of its possessors, I have caused to breathe out,

40 Instead of wheat let a thorn go forth, And instead of barley a useless weed! The words of Job are finished.
