New Testament

Job 24:14-21 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

14. The murderer rises at daylight, he slays the poor and needy, and in the night he is as a thief.

15. And the eye of the adulterer watches for dusk, saying, ‘No eye sees me.’ And he puts a covering on the face.

16. In the dark he has broken into houses; by day they shut themselves up; they have not known light.

17. For all of them morning is the same as the shadow of death, when he discerns the extreme fears of the shadow of death.

18. He is swift on the face of the waters; their portion is cursed in the earth; he does not turn into the way of vineyards.

19. Drought and heat snatch away snow waters – the grave those who have sinned.

20. The womb forgets him, the worm feeds sweetly on him; he is remembered no more, and wickedness is broken like a tree;

21. treating evil the barren who does not bear, and does no good for the widow.
