Job Complains of Violence on the Earth

24 “Since atimes are not hidden from the Almighty,

Why do those who know Him see not His bdays?

2 “Some remove clandmarks;

They seize flocks violently and feed on them;

3 They drive away the donkey of the fatherless;

They dtake the widow’s ox as a pledge.

4 They push the needy off the road;

All the epoor of the land are forced to hide.

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 field

And glean in the vineyard of the wicked.

7 They fspend the night naked, without clothing,

And have no covering in the cold.

8 They are wet with the showers of the mountains,

And ghuddle 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 hclothing;

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.
