Job 24
1 Howe should not the times be hid from the Almightie, seeing that they which knowe him, see not his dayes?
Why? from [the] Almighty not have they been stored up times (and [those who] know him *Q(K)*) not have they seen? days his.
2 Some remoue the land marks, that rob the flockes and feede thereof.
Boundaries people reach flock[s] they seize and they have pastured [them].
3 They leade away the asse of the fatherles: and take the widowes oxe to pledge.
[the] donkey of Fatherless ones they drive away they take as pledge [the] ox of a widow.
4 They make the poore to turne out of the way, so that the poore of the earth hide themselues together.
They thrust aside needy [people] from [the] path together they are made to hide themselves [the] poor [people] of [the] earth.
5 Behold, others as wilde asses in the wildernesse, goe forth to their businesse, and rise early for a praye: the wildernesse giueth him and his children foode.
There! wild donkeys - in the wilderness they go forth in work their seeking for food a desert plain to it food for the children.
6 They reape his prouision in the fielde, but they gather the late vintage of the wicked.
In the field fodder its (they harvest *Q(K)*) and [the] vineyard of [the] wicked they glean.
7 They cause the naked to lodge without garment, and without couering in the colde.
Naked they spend [the] night because not clothing and there not [is] covering in the coldness.
8 They are wet with the showres of the moutaines, and they imbrace the rocke for want of a couering.
From [the] rain of [the] mountains they are wet and because not shelter they embrace [the] rock.
9 They plucke the fatherles from the breast, and take the pledge of the poore.
People tear away from [the] breast a fatherless one and on [the] poor they take pledges.
10 They cause him to go naked without clothing, and take the glening from the hungrie.
Naked they go about not clothing and hungry they carry a sheaf.
11 They that make oyle betweene their walles, and treade their wine presses, suffer thirst.
Between rows their they press out oil wine-presses they tread and they were thirsty.
12 Men cry out of the citie, and the soules of the slayne cry out: yet God doth not charge them with follie.
From [the] city men - they groan and [the] throat of [those] fatally wounded it cries for help and God not he puts offensiveness.
13 These are they, that abhorre the light: they know not the wayes thereof, nor continue in the paths thereof.
They - they are among [those who] rebel against [the] light not they pay regard to ways its and not they dwell in paths its.
14 The murtherer riseth earely and killeth the poore and the needie: and in the night he is as a theefe.
To the light he rises a murderer he kills [the] poor and [the] needy and in the night he is like thief.
15 The eye also of the adulterer waiteth for the twilight, and sayth, None eye shall see me, and disguiseth his face.
And [the] eye of an adulterer - it watches for twilight saying not it will observe me an eye and covering of face he puts.
16 They digge through houses in the darke, which they marked for themselues in the daye: they knowe not the light.
He digs into in darkness houses by day they seal up for themselves not they know light.
17 But the morning is euen to them as the shadow of death: if one knowe them, they are in the terrours of the shadowe of death.
For together - [is] morning for them deep darkness for he is acquainted with [the] terrors of deep darkness.
18 He is swift vpon the waters: their portion shalbe cursed in the earth: he will not behold the way of the vineyardes.
[is] swift He - on [the] surface of [the] waters it is cursed portion their in the land not anyone turns [the] direction of vineyards.
19 As the dry ground and heate consume the snowe waters, so shall the graue the sinners. (Sheol h7585)
Drought also heat they snatch away [the] waters of snow Sheol [those who] they have sinned. (Sheol h7585)
20 The pitifull man shall forget him: the worme shall feele his sweetenes: he shalbe no more remembered, and the wicked shalbe broke like a tree.
It forgets him [the] womb - it sucks on him maggot[s] again not he is remembered and it was broken like tree injustice.
21 He doth euil intreat ye barren, that doeth not beare, neither doeth he good to the widowe.
[he] feeds on A barren [woman] [who] not she gives birth and a widow not he does good to.
22 He draweth also the mighty by his power, and when he riseth vp, none is sure of life.
And he drags off mighty [ones] by power his he rises and not anyone trusts in life.
23 Though men giue him assurance to be in safetie, yet his eyes are vpon their wayes.
He gives to him to security so he may support himself and eyes his [are] on ways their.
24 They are exalted for a litle, but they are gone, and are brought lowe as all others: they are destroyed, and cut off as the toppe of an eare of corne.
They are exalted a little - and there not [is] he and they are brought low like everyone they are contracted! and like a head of grain they wither.
25 But if it be not so, where is he? or who wil proue me a lyer, and make my words of no value?
And if not then who? will he prove a liar me and will he make? into nothing speech my.
