Iyov 24:2-13 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

2. Some move the boundary stones; they steal edar, and pasture them.

3. They drive away the chamor of the yetomim, they take the ox of the almanah for a pledge.

4. They thrust the needy out of the derech; the poor of the eretz needs hide themselves together.

5. Look, as wild donkeys in the midbar go they forth to their work; foraging for teref (nourishment); the wilderness yieldeth lechem for them and for their na'arim.

6. They reap every one his fodder in the sadeh, and they glean the kerem of the resha'im.

7. They spend the night arom (naked) without levush (clothing), they have no covering in the cold.

8. They are wet with the rain of the harim, and embrace the tzur for want of a shelter.

9. They pluck the yatom from the breast, and seize the oni for debt.

10. They cause him to go arom without levush, and they take away the omer (sheaf) from the hungry;

11. Which crush olives within their walls, and tread their winepresses, yet suffer thirst.

12. Men groan from out of the Ir, and the nefesh of the chalalim (wounded ones) crieth out, yet Eloah chargeth not tiflah (folly) to them.

13. They are of those that are moredei ohr (rebelling ones against the light); they know not the ways thereof, nor abide in the paths thereof.
