New Testament

Job 24:5-12 New King James Version (NKJV)

5. Indeed, like wild donkeys in the desert,They go out to their work, searching for food.The wilderness yields food for them and for their children.

6. They gather their fodder in the fieldAnd glean in the vineyard of the wicked.

7. They spend the night naked, without clothing,And have no covering in the cold.

8. They are wet with the showers of the mountains,And huddle around the rock for want of shelter.

9. “Some snatch the fatherless from the breast,And take a pledge from the poor.

10. They cause the poor to go naked, without clothing;And they take away the sheaves from the hungry.

11. They press out oil within their walls,And tread winepresses, yet suffer thirst.

12. The dying groan in the city,And the souls of the wounded cry out;Yet God does not charge them with wrong.
