'Land' in the Bible

There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job. He was without sin and upright, fearing God and keeping himself far from evil.

Have you yourself not put a wall round him and his house and all he has on every side, blessing the work of his hands, and increasing his cattle in the land?

When a great wind came rushing from the waste land against the four sides of the house, and it came down on the young men, and they are dead; and I was the only one who got away safe to give you the news.

The land is given into the power of the evil-doer; the faces of its judges are covered; if not by him, then who has done it?

Before I go to the place from which I will not come back, to the land where all is dark and black,

A land of thick dark, without order, where the very light is dark.

For only to them was the land given, and no strange people were among them:)

For it was the man with power who had the land, and the man with an honoured name who was living in it.

Like asses in the waste land they go out to their work, looking for food with care; from the waste land they get bread for their children.

Man has not seen the way to it, and it is not in the land of the living.

They are wasted for need of food, biting the dry earth; their only hope of life is in the waste land.

They are sons of shame, and of men without a name, who have been forced out of the land.

If my land has made an outcry against me, or the ploughed earth has been in sorrow;

Causing rain to come on a land where no man is living, on the waste land which has no people;

To give water to the land where there is waste and destruction, and to make the dry land green with young grass?

To whom I have given the waste land for a heritage, and the salt land as a living-place.
