Job 24:1-8 ▼

1 Times are not hid from the Almighty: but they that know him, know not his days.

2 Some have removed landmarks, have taken away flocks by force, and fed them.

3 They have driven away the ass of the fatherless, and have taken away the widow's ox for a pledge.

4 They have overturned the way of the poor, and have oppressed together the meek of the earth.

5 Others like wild asses in the desert go forth to their work: by watching for a prey they get bread for their children.

6 They reap the field that is not their own, and gather the vintage of his vineyard whom by violence they have oppressed.

7 They send men away naked, taking away their clothes who have no covering in the cold:

8 Who are wet, with the showers of the mountains, and having no covering embrace the stones.
