Why, seeing times <H6256> are not hidden <H6845> from the Almighty, <H7706> do they that know <H3045> him not see <H2372> his days? <H3117>
2
[Some] remove <H5381> the landmarks; <H1367> they violently take away <H1497> flocks, <H5739> and feed <H7462> [thereof].
3
They drive away <H5090> the ass <H2543> of the fatherless, <H3490> they take the widow's <H0490> ox <H7794> for a pledge. <H2254>
4
They turn <H5186> the needy <H0034> out of the way: <H1870> the poor <H6041> <H6035> of the earth <H0776> hide <H2244> themselves together. <H3162>
5
Behold, [as] wild asses <H6501> in the desert, <H4057> go they forth <H3318> to their work; <H6467> rising betimes <H7836> for a prey: <H2964> the wilderness <H6160> [yieldeth] food <H3899> for them [and] for [their] children. <H5288>
6
They reap <H7114> [every one] his corn <H1098> in the field: <H7704> and they gather <H3953> the vintage <H3754> of the wicked. <H7563>
7
They cause the naked <H6174> to lodge <H3885> without clothing, <H3830> that [they have] no covering <H3682> in the cold. <H7135>
8
They are wet <H7372> with the showers <H2230> of the mountains, <H2022> and embrace <H2263> the rock <H6697> for want of a shelter. <H4268>
9
They pluck <H1497> the fatherless <H3490> from the breast, <H7699> and take a pledge <H2254> of the poor. <H6041>
10
They cause [him] to go <H1980> naked <H6174> without clothing, <H3830> and they take away <H5375> the sheaf <H6016> [from] the hungry; <H7457>
11
[Which] make oil <H6671> within <H0996> their walls, <H7791> [and] tread <H1869> [their] winepresses, <H3342> and suffer thirst. <H6770>
12
Men <H4962> groan <H5008> from out of the city, <H5892> and the soul <H5315> of the wounded <H2491> crieth out: <H7768> yet God <H0433> layeth <H7760> not folly <H8604> [to them].
13
They are of those that rebel <H4775> against the light; <H0216> they know <H5234> not the ways <H1870> thereof, nor abide <H3427> in the paths <H5410> thereof.
14
The murderer <H7523> rising <H6965> with the light <H0216> killeth <H6991> the poor <H6041> and needy, <H0034> and in the night <H3915> is as a thief. <H1590>
15
The eye <H5869> also of the adulterer <H5003> waiteth <H8104> for the twilight, <H5399> saying, <H0559> No eye <H5869> shall see <H7789> me: and disguiseth <H5643> <H7760> [his] face. <H6440>
16
In the dark <H2822> they dig through <H2864> houses, <H1004> [which] they had marked <H2856> for themselves in the daytime: <H3119> they know <H3045> not the light. <H0216>
17
For the morning <H1242> [is] to them even as <H3162> the shadow of death: <H6757> if [one] know <H5234> [them, they are in] the terrors <H1091> of the shadow of death. <H6757>
18
He [is] swift <H7031> as <H6440> the waters; <H4325> their portion <H2513> is cursed <H7043> in the earth: <H0776> he beholdeth <H6437> not the way <H1870> of the vineyards. <H3754>
19
Drought <H6723> and heat <H2527> consume <H1497> the snow <H7950> waters: <H4325> [so doth] the grave <H7585> [those which] have sinned. <H2398>
20
The womb <H7358> shall forget <H7911> him; the worm <H7415> shall feed sweetly <H4988> on him; he shall be no more remembered; <H2142> and wickedness <H5766> shall be broken <H7665> as a tree. <H6086>
21
He evil entreateth <H7462> the barren <H6135> [that] beareth <H3205> not: and doeth not good <H3190> to the widow. <H0490>
22
He draweth <H4900> also the mighty <H0047> with his power: <H3581> he riseth up, <H6965> and no [man] is sure <H0539> of life. <H2416>
23
[Though] it be given <H5414> him [to be] in safety, <H0983> whereon he resteth; <H8172> yet his eyes <H5869> [are] upon their ways. <H1870>
24
They are exalted <H7426> for a little while, <H4592> but are gone and brought low; <H4355> they are taken out of the way <H7092> as all [other], and cut off <H5243> as the tops <H7218> of the ears of corn. <H7641>
25
And if [it be] not [so] now, <H0645> who will make me a liar, <H3576> and make <H7760> my speech <H4405> nothing worth? <H0408>
