13 There are those who rebel against the light; they do not know its ways and they do not stay on its paths. 14 Before daybreak the murderer rises up; he kills the poor and the needy; in the night he is like a thief. 15 And the eye of the adulterer watches for the twilight, thinking, 'No eye can see me,' and covers his face with a mask. 16 In the dark the robber breaks into houses, but by day they shut themselves in; they do not know the light. 17 For all of them, the morning is to them like deep darkness; they are friends with the terrors of darkness.
