¹ Why since times are not hidden from the Almighty, do even those knowing Him not see His days?² They move the landmarks; they seize and pasture flocks;³ they drive away the ass of orphans; they take the widow's ox for a pledge;⁴ they turn the needy out of the way; the poor of the earth have hidden together.⁵ Behold, like wild asses in the desert, they go out in their work, seeking early for prey; the desert yields food for him for their young.⁶ They reap his fodder in the field, and they glean the wicked's vineyard.⁷ They lodge naked ones without clothing, and they give no cover against the cold.⁸ They are wet with the showers of hills, and embrace the rock for lack of shelter.⁹ They seize the orphan from the breast, and lay a pledge on the poor.¹⁰ They make them go without clothing, and are hungry; they lift up the sheaves.¹¹ They press out oil between their walls; they tread winepresses, but are thirsty.¹² Men groan from out of the city, and the soul of the wounded cries for help; yet God does not charge unseemliness.

¹³ They are among rebellers against light; they do not recognize His ways, nor do they stay in His paths.¹⁴ The murderer rising with the light kills the poor and needy, and in the night he is a thief.¹⁵ And the adulterer's eye keeps watch for twilight, saying, No eye will see me; and he puts a covering on his face.¹⁶ In the dark he digs through houses; they shut themselves up by day; they do not know the light.¹⁷ For alike are morning and the shadow of death to them; for he knows the terrors of death shadow.

¹⁸ He is swift on the waters; their part is cursed in the earth; he does not face the way of the vineyards.¹⁹ Drought and heat eat up the snow waters, and Sheol those who have sinned.²⁰ The womb shall forget him; the worm shall suck on him; he shall be remembered no more; and injustice shall be broken like a tree.²¹ He ill treats the barren that bear not, and does no good to the widow.²² He also draws the mighty with his strength; He rises up, and no one is sure of life.²³ He gives security to him, and he leans on it ; yet His eyes are on their ways.²⁴ They are lifted up for a little while, but they are not; and they are brought low; they are gathered in like all others , and wither like the heads of ears of grain.²⁵ And if not, then who will prove me a liar, and make my speech into nothing?
