Job 24:2-12

2Some remove the boundary-stones; they steal flocks and pasture them.

3They drive away the orphan’s donkey and take the widow’s ox as a pledge.

4They turn the needy off the path; they force the poor of the land into hiding.

5Behold, like wild donkeys in the desert, they go about their work, foraging prey in the desert as food for their children.

6They reap their fodder in the field and glean in the vineyard of the wicked.

7Without clothing they spend the night naked, without covering against the cold.

8They are drenched by mountain rains, and hug the rock for lack of shelter.

9The orphan is snatched from the breast; the infant of the poor is taken as a pledge.

10They wander about naked, without clothing and go hungry while they carry sheaves.

11They press oil between the terraces; they tread winepresses, but are thirsty.

12From the city men groan, and the souls of the wounded cry out; yet God charges no one with folly.
