Deuteronomy
- Deuteronomy 11:10For the land, whither thou goest in to possess it, is not as the land of Egypt, from whence ye came out, where thou sowedst thy seed, and wateredst it with thy foot, as a garden of herbs:For the land that you are entering to possess is not like the land of Egypt, from which you have come, where you sowed your seed and irrigated on foot, like a vegetable garden.
1 Kings

I will give you a better vineyard in its place—or if you prefer, I will give you its value in silver.”
