New Testament

Job 24:10-16 New English Translation (NET)

10. They go about naked, without clothing,and go hungry while they carry the sheaves.

11. They press out the olive oil between the rows of olive trees;they tread the winepresses while they are thirsty.

12. From the city the dying groan,and the wounded cry out for help,but God charges no one with wrongdoing.

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.
