11. They crush olives in their presses; they tread the winepresses, but go thirsty.
12. From the city, men groan;the mortally wounded cry for help,yet God pays no attention to this crime.
13. The wicked are those who rebel against the light.They do not recognize its waysor stay on its paths.
14. The murderer rises at dawnto kill the poor and needy,and by night he becomes a thief.
15. The adulterer’s eye watches for twilight,thinking: No eye will see me;he covers his face.
16. In the dark they break into houses;by day they lock themselves in, never experiencing the light.
17. For the morning is like darkness to them.Surely they are familiar with the terrors of darkness!
18. They float on the surface of the water.Their section of the land is cursed,so that they never go to their vineyards.
19. As dry ground and heat snatch away the melted snow,so Sheol steals those who have sinned.
20. The womb forgets them;worms feed on them;they are remembered no more.So injustice is broken like a tree.
