Job 24:4-13 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

4. They turn the needy out of the way: the poor of the earth hide themselves together.

5. Behold, as wild asses in the desert they go forth to their work, seeking diligently for meat; the wilderness yieldeth them food for their children.

6. They cut their provender in the field; and they glean the vintage of the wicked.

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

8. They are wet with the showers of the mountains, and embrace the rock for want of a shelter.

9. There are that pluck the fatherless from the breast, and take a pledge of the poor:

10. So that they go about naked without clothing, and being an-hungred they carry the sheaves;

11. They make oil within the walls of these men; they tread their winepresses, and suffer thirst.

12. From out of the populous city men groan, and the soul of the wounded crieth out: yet God imputeth it not for folly.

13. These are of them that rebel against the light; they know not the ways thereof, nor abide in the paths thereof.
