Revised Version 1895

Job 24:2-12

2There are that remove the landmarks; they violently take away flocks, and feed them.

3They drive away the ass of the fatherless, they take the widow’s ox for a pledge.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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