If my land cry against me, or that the furrows likewise thereof complain;
Si mi tierra clama contra mí, o si los surcos de mis campos se quejan de mí;
Job dice que si su tierra protestara contra él por maltratarla, sería culpable.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Book of Job, Chapter 31, Job is delivering a passionate defense of his innocence during his suffering, listing various oaths to prove he has not sinned in specific ways. This verse reflects the ancient Near Eastern view that the land could metaphorically "cry out" against mistreatment, such as exploitation or neglect, which was tied to ideas of justice and divine accountability as seen in other biblical writings. Agriculture was central to daily life in that culture, making proper stewardship of the earth a moral and spiritual obligation.
