Job 24:2-12
2Some removeH5381 the landmarksH1367; they violently take awayH1497 flocksH5739, and feedH7462 thereof.1
3They drive awayH5090 the donkeyH2543 of the fatherlessH3490, they takeH2254 the widow’sH490 oxH7794 for a pledgeH2254.
4They turnH5186 the needyH34 out of the wayH1870: the poorH6035H6041 of the earthH776 hideH2244 themselves togetherH3162.
5Behold, as wild donkeysH6501 in the desertH4057, go they forthH3318 to their workH6467; rising betimesH7836 for a preyH2964: the wildernessH6160 yieldeth foodH3899 for them and for their childrenH5288.
6They reapH7114 every one his provenderH1098 in the fieldH7704: and they gatherH3953 the vintageH3754 of the wickedH7563.23
7They cause the nakedH6174 to lodgeH3885 without clothingH3830, that they have no coveringH3682 in the coldH7135.
8They are wetH7372 with the showersH2230 of the mountainsH2022, and embraceH2263 the rockH6697 for want of a shelterH4268.
9They pluckH1497 the fatherlessH3490 from the breastH7699, and take a pledgeH2254 of the poorH6041.
10They cause him to goH1980 nakedH6174 without clothingH3830, and they take awayH5375 the sheafH6016 from the hungryH7457;
11Which make oilH6671 withinH996 their wallsH7791, and treadH1869 their winepressesH3342, and suffer thirstH6770.
12MenH4962 groanH5008 from out of the cityH5892, and the soulH5315 of the woundedH2491 crieth outH7768: yet GodH433 layethH7760 not follyH8604 to them.
