Job 24:2-12

Coverdale(i) 2 For some me there be, that remoue other mes londe markes: that robbe them of their catell, and kepe the same for their owne: 3 that dryue awaye the asse of the fatherlesse: that take ye wyddowes oxe for a pledge: 4 that thrust the poore out of the waye, & oppresse the symple of the worlde together. 5 Beholde, the wilde asses in ye deserte go by tymes (as their maner is) to spoyle: Yee the very wildernesse ministreth foode for their children. 6 They reape the corne felde that is not their owne: and gather the grapes out of his vynyarde, whom they haue oppressed by violence. 7 They are the cause yt so many men are naked and bare, hauynge no clothes to couer them and kepe them from colde: 8 So that when the showers in the mountaynes haue rayned vpon them, & they be all wett, they haue none other sucoure, but to kepe them amonge the rockes. 9 They spoyle the suckinge fatherlesse children, and put the poore in preson: 10 In so moch that they let them go naked without clothinge, and yet the hungrie beare the sheeues. 11 The poore are fayne to laboure in their oyle mylles, yee and to treade in their wyne presses, and yet to suffre thyrst. 12 The whole cite crieth vnto the LORDE with sighinge, the soules of the slayne make their complaynte: But God destroyeth them not for all this,
