31. If the men of my tent have not said, Who can find one that hath not been filled with his meat?
32. (The sojourner hath not lodged in the street; But I have opened my doors to the traveller);
33. If like Adam I have covered my transgressions, By hiding mine iniquity in my bosom,
34. Because I feared the great multitude, And the contempt of families terrified me, So that I kept silence, and went not out of the door-
35. Oh that I had one to hear me! (Lo, here is my signature, let the Almighty answer me); And that I had the indictment which mine adversary hath written!
36. Surely I would carry it upon my shoulder; I would bind it unto me as a crown:
37. I would declare unto him the number of my steps; As a prince would I go near unto him.
38. If my land crieth out against me, And the furrows thereof weep together;
39. If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, Or have caused the owners thereof to lose their life:
40. Let thistles grow instead of wheat, And cockle instead of barley.
