Job 24:13-17

13“Wicked people rebel against the light. They refuse to acknowledge its ways or stay in its paths.

14The murderer rises in the early dawn to kill the poor and needy; at night he is a thief.

15The adulterer waits for the twilight, saying, ‘No one will see me then.’ He hides his face so no one will know him.

16Thieves break into houses at night and sleep in the daytime. They are not acquainted with the light.

17The black night is their morning. They ally themselves with the terrors of the darkness.
