New International Version (NIV)

39if I have devoured its yield without payment

or broken the spirit of its tenants,

39If I have eaten its fruit without money,

Or have caused its owners to lose their lives,

39If I have eaten its fruits without paying for them,

Or have caused its [rightful] owners to lose their lives,

39if I have devoured its produce without payment

or broken the spirit of its tenants,

39If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money,

Or have caused the owners thereof to lose their life:

39If I haue eaten the fruites thereof without siluer: or if I haue grieued the soules of the masters thereof,

39if I have eaten its fruits without money,

or have caused its owners to lose their life,

39Suppose I’ve used up its crops without paying for them.

Or I’ve broken the spirit of its renters.

39I have always paid for the food

that other people have worked to grow.

I have never cheated the farmers

so that they suffered.

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