Job 24:2-12

Leeser(i) 2 The wicked remove landmarks: they rob flocks, and feed them. 3 They drive away the ass of the fatherless, they take in pledge the widow’s ox. 4 They chase the needy out of the highway: altogether hide themselves the poor of the earth. 5 Behold, as wild asses in the wilderness go they forth to their work, rising betimes after their prey: the desert yieldeth food for them and for their young men. 6 In the field they reap their food; and in the vineyard of the wicked they gather the fruit. 7 They cause the poor to spend the night naked, without clothing and without any covering in the cold. 8 Through the sweeping rain of the mountains are they made wet, and for want of a shelter do they embrace the rock. 9 The others pluck from the breast the fatherless, and the garment of the poor they take in pledge. 10 They cause him to go naked without clothing, and from the hungry they take away the sheaf: 11 Within their walls do they make oil, they tread their wine-presses, and suffer thirst. 12 Out of a populous city is groaning heard, and the soul of the deadly wounded crieth out: yet God regardeth it not as an offence.
