New Testament

Job 24:1-8 English Standard Version (ESV)

1. “Why are not times of judgment kept by the Almighty,and why do those who know him never see his days?

2. Some move landmarks;they seize flocks and pasture them.

3. They drive away the donkey of the fatherless;they take the widow’s ox for a pledge.

4. They thrust the poor off the road;the poor of the earth all hide themselves.

5. Behold, like wild donkeys in the desertthe poor go out to their toil, seeking game;the wasteland yields food for their children.

6. They gather their fodder in the field,and they glean the vineyard of the wicked man.

7. They lie all night naked, without clothing,and have no covering in the cold.

8. They are wet with the rain of the mountainsand cling to the rock for lack of shelter.
