New Testament

Job 24:14-21 English Revised Version (ERV)

14. The murderer riseth with the light, he killeth the poor and needy; and in the night he is as a thief.

15. The eye also of the adulterer waiteth for the twilight, saying, No eye shall see me: and he disguiseth his face.

16. In the dark they dig through houses: they shut themselves up in the daytime; they know not the light.

17. For the morning is to all of them as the shadow of death; for they know the terrors of the shadow of death.

18. He is swift upon the face of the waters; their portion is cursed in the earth: he turneth not by the way of the vineyards.

19. Drought and heat consume the snow waters: so doth Sheol those which have sinned.

20. The womb shall forget him; the worm shall feed sweetly on him; he shall be no more remembered: and unrighteousness shall be broken as a tree.

21. He devoureth the barren that beareth not; and doeth not good to the widow.
