Micah 6:15

אַתָּה תִזְרַע וְלֹא תִקְצוֹר אַתָּה תִדְרֹֽךְ-זַיִת וְלֹא-תָסוּךְ שֶׁמֶן וְתִירוֹשׁ וְלֹא תִשְׁתֶּה-יָּֽיִן׃
15
Thou shalt sow, but thou shalt not reap; thou shalt tread the olives, but thou shalt not anoint thee with oil; and sweet wine, but shalt not drink wine.

Job 31:8

אֶזְרְעָה וְאַחֵר יֹאכֵל וְֽצֶאֱצָאַי יְשֹׁרָֽשׁוּ׃
8
Then let me sow, and let another eat; yea, let my offspring be rooted out.

Luke 19:21

ἐφοβούμην γάρ σε ὅτι ἄνθρωπος αὐστηρὸς εἶ αἴρεις ὃ οὐκ ἔθηκας καὶ θερίζεις ὃ οὐκ ἔσπειρας
21
For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst down, not and reapest that thou didst not sow.

וְהָיָה אִם-זָרַע יִשְׂרָאֵל וְעָלָה מִדְיָן וַֽעֲמָלֵק וּבְנֵי-קֶדֶם וְעָלוּ עָלָֽיו׃
3
