Jó 24

1 Why are times not laid up by the Almighty?

2 There are that remove the landmarks;

3 They drive away the ass of the fatherless;

4 They turn the needy out of the way:

5 Behold, as wild asses in the desert

6 They cut their provender in the field;

7 They lie all night naked without clothing,

8 They are wet with the showers of the mountains,

9 There are that pluck the fatherless from the breast,

11 They make oil within the walls of these men;

12 From out of the populous city men groan,

13 These are of them that rebel against the light;

14 The murderer riseth with the light;

15 The eye also of the adulterer waiteth for the twilight,

16 In the dark they dig through houses:

17 For the morning is to all of them as thick darkness;

18 Swiftly they

19 Drought and heat consume the snow waters:

20 The womb shall forget him;

21 He devoureth the barren that beareth not,

22 Yet

24 They are exalted; yet a little while, and they are gone;

25 And if it be not so now, who will prove me a liar,
