أُجْرَة in a sentence

From a fully vowelled text

أَمَّا الَّذِي يَعْمَلُ فَلاَ تُحْسَبُ لَهُ الأُجْرَةُ عَلَى سَبِيلِ نِعْمَةٍ، بَلْ عَلَى سَبِيلِ دَيْنٍ.Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.Romans 4:4, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
لاَ تَفْرَحْ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ طَرَبًا كَالشُّعُوبِ، لأَنَّكَ قَدْ زَنَيْتَ عَنْ إِلهِكَ. أَحْبَبْتَ الأُجْرَةَ عَلَى جَمِيعِ بَيَادِرِ الْحِنْطَةِ.Rejoice not, O Israel, for joy, as other people: for thou hast gone a whoring from thy God, thou hast loved a reward upon every cornfloor.Hosea 9:1, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
بِبِنَائِكِ قُبَّتَكِ فِي رَأْسِ كُلِّ طَرِيق، وَصُنْعِكِ مُرْتَفَعَتَكِ فِي كُلِّ شَارِعٍ. وَلَمْ تَكُونِي كَزَانِيَةٍ، بَلْ مُحْتَقَرةً الأُجْرَةَ.In that thou buildest thine eminent place in the head of every way, and makest thine high place in every street; and hast not been as an harlot, in that thou scornest hire;Ezekiel 16:31, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
