Job 24:1 (NET) New English Translation

1 "Why are times not appointed by the Almighty? Why do those who know him not see his days?
2 Men move boundary stones; they seize the flock and pasture them.
3 They drive away the orphan's donkey; they take the widow's ox as a pledge.
4 They turn the needy from the pathway, and the poor of the land hide themselves together.
5 Like wild donkeys in the desert they go out to their labor, seeking diligently for food; the wasteland provides food for them and for their children.
6 They reap fodder in the field, and glean in the vineyard of the wicked.
7 They spend the night naked because they lack clothing; they have no covering against the cold.
8 They are soaked by mountain rains and huddle in the rocks because they lack shelter.
9 The fatherless child is snatched from the breast, the infant of the poor is taken as a pledge.
10 They go about naked, without clothing, and go hungry while they carry the sheaves.
11 They press out the olive oil between the rows of olive trees; they tread the winepresses while they are thirsty.
12 From the city the dying groan, and the wounded cry out for help, but God charges no one with wrongdoing.
13 There are those who rebel against the light; they do not know its ways and they do not stay on its paths.
14 Before daybreak the murderer rises up; he kills the poor and the needy; in the night he is like a thief.
15 And the eye of the adulterer watches for the twilight, thinking, 'No eye can see me,' and covers his face with a mask.
16 In the dark the robber breaks into houses, but by day they shut themselves in; they do not know the light.
17 For all of them, the morning is to them like deep darkness; they are friends with the terrors of darkness.
18 "You say, 'He is foam on the face of the waters; their portion of the land is cursed so that no one goes to their vineyard.
19 The drought as well as the heat carry away the melted snow; so the grave takes away those who have sinned.
20 The womb forgets him, the worm feasts on him, no longer will he be remembered. Like a tree, wickedness will be broken down.
21 He preys on the barren and childless woman, and does not treat the widow well.
22 But God drags off the mighty by his power; when God rises up against him, he has no faith in his life.
23 God may let them rest in a feeling of security, but he is constantly watching all their ways.
24 They are exalted for a little while, and then they are gone, they are brought low like all others, and gathered in, and like a head of grain they are cut off.'
25 "If this is not so, who can prove me a liar and reduce my words to nothing?"
1 Why H4069 IPRO , seeing times H6256 NMP are not H3808 NADV hidden H6845 VNP3MP from the Almighty H7706 M-EMS , do they that know H3045 W-VQCMS-3MS him not H3808 NADV see H2372 VQP3MP his days H3117 CMP-3MS ?
2 Some remove H5381 VHY3MP the landmarks H1367 NFS ; they violently take away H1497 VQQ3MP flocks H5739 NMS , and feed H7462 W-VQY3MP thereof .
3 They drive away H5090 VQY3MP the ass H2543 CMS of the fatherless H3490 NMP , they take the widow\'s ox for a pledge H2254 VQY3MP .
4 They turn H5186 VHY3MP the needy H34 NMP out of the way H1870 M-NMS : the poor H6041 of the earth H776 GFS hide H2244 VUQ3MP themselves together H3162 ADV .
5 Behold H2005 IJEC , as wild asses H6501 NMP in the desert H4057 BD-NMS , go they forth H3318 VQQ3MP to their work H6467 B-CMS-3MP ; rising quickly H7836 VPCMP for a prey H2964 LD-NMS : the wilderness H6160 NFS yieldeth food H3899 NMS for them and for their children H5288 LD-NMP .
6 They reap H7114 VHY3MP every one his corn H1098 CMS-3MS in the field H7704 B-NMS : and they gather H3953 VPY3MP the vintage H3754 W-NMS of the wicked H7563 AMS .
7 They cause the naked H6174 AMS to lodge H3885 VQY3MP without H1097 M-NPAR clothing H3830 NMS , that they have no H369 W-NPAR covering H3682 NFS in the cold H7135 BD-NFS .
8 They are wet H7372 VQY3MP with the showers H2230 M-CMS of the mountains H2022 NMP , and embrace H2263 VPQ3MP the rock H6697 NMS for want H1097 WM-ADV of a shelter H4268 NMS .
9 They pluck H1497 VQY3MP the fatherless H3490 NMS from the breast H7699 M-NMS , and take a pledge H2254 VQY3MP of H5921 the poor H6041 AMS .
10 They cause him to go H1980 VPQ3MP naked H6174 AMS without H1097 ADV clothing H3830 NMS , and they take away H5375 VQQ3MP the sheaf H6016 NMS from the hungry H7457 ;
11 Which make oil H6671 VHY3MP within H996 PREP their walls H7791 CFP-3MP , and tread H1869 VQQ3MP their winepresses H3342 NMP , and suffer thirst H6770 W-VQY3MP .
12 Men H4962 NMP groan H5008 VQY3MP from out of the city H5892 M-NFS , and the soul H5315 W-CFS of the wounded H2491 NMP crieth out H7768 VQY3FS : yet God H433 W-EMS layeth H7760 VQY3MS not H3808 NADV folly H8604 NFS to them .
13 They H1992 PPRO-3MP are H1961 VQQ3MP of those that rebel H4775 VQCMP against the light H216 NMS ; they know H5234 VHQ3MP not H3808 ADV the ways H1870 CMP-3MS thereof , nor H3808 W-NADV abide H3427 VQQ3MP in the paths H5410 B-CFP-3MS thereof .
14 The murderer H7523 VQPMS rising H6965 VQY3MS with the light H216 L-NMS killeth H6991 VQY3MS the poor H6041 AMS and needy H34 W-AMS , and in the night H3915 WB-AFS is H1961 VPY3MS as a thief H1590 KD-NMS .
15 The eye H5869 W-CMS also of the adulterer H5003 VQPMS waiteth H8104 VQQ3FS for the twilight H5399 NMS , saying H559 L-VQFC , No H3808 NADV eye H5869 NMS shall see H7789 VQY3FS-1MS me : and disguiseth H5643 W-CMS his face H6440 NMP .
16 In the dark H2822 BD-NMS they dig through H2864 VQQ3MS houses H1004 NMP , which they had marked H2856 VPQ3MP for themselves in the daytime H3119 ADV : they know H3045 VQQ3MP not H3808 NADV the light H216 NMS .
17 For H3588 CONJ the morning H1242 NMS is to them even as H3162 ADV-3MS the shadow of death H6757 NMS : if H3588 CONJ one know H5234 VHY3MS them , they are in the terrors H1091 CFP of the shadow of death H6757 NMS .
18 He H1931 PPRO-3MS is swift H7031 AMS as PREP the waters H4325 OMD ; their portion H2513 CFS-3MP is cursed H7043 VUY3FS in the earth H776 B-NFS : he beholdeth H6437 VQY3MS not H3808 ADV the way H1870 NMS of the vineyards H3754 NMP .
19 Drought H6723 NFS and H1571 CONJ heat H2527 NMS consume H1497 VQY3MP the snow H7950 NMS waters H4325 CMP : so doth the grave H7585 NMS those which have sinned H2398 VQQ3MP .
20 The womb H7358 NMS shall forget H7911 VQY3MS-3MS him ; the worm H7415 NFS shall feed sweetly H4988 VQQ3MS-3MS on him ; he shall be no H3808 ADV more H5750 ADV remembered H2142 VNY3MS ; and wickedness H5766 NFS shall be broken H7665 W-VNY3FS as a tree H6086 KD-NMS .
21 He evil entreateth H7462 VQPMS the barren H6135 AFS that beareth H3205 VQY3FS not H3808 NADV : and doeth not H3808 NADV good H3190 VHY3MS to the widow H490 W-NFS .
22 He draweth H4900 W-VQQ3MS also the mighty H47 AMP with his power H3581 B-CMS-3MS : he riseth up H6965 VQY3MS , and no H3808 W-NPAR man is sure H539 VHY3MS of life H2416 BD-NMP .
23 Though it be given H5414 VQY3MS him to be in safety H983 L-NMS , whereon he resteth H8172 W-VNY3MS ; yet his eyes H5869 W-CMD-3MS are upon H5921 PREP their ways H1870 CMP-3MP .
24 They are exalted H7426 VQQ3MP for a little while H4592 AMS , but are gone H369 W-ADV-3MS and brought low H4355 W-VOQ3MP ; they are taken out of the way H7092 VNY3MP-3FP as all H3605 KD-NMS other , and cut off H5243 VQY3MP as the tops H7218 WK-CMS of the ears of corn H7641 CFS .
25 And if H518 W-PART it be not H3808 NADV so now H645 CONJ , who H4310 IPRO will make me a liar H3576 VHY3MS-1MS , and make H7760 W-VQI3MS my speech H4405 CFS-1MS nothing H408 L-NADV worth ?
