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.
