Job 24:14

Job's Eighth Speech, Continued

¹³ “Others have been with those who rebel against the light;
They do not want to know its ways
Nor abide in its paths.
¹⁴ “The murderer arises at dawn;
He kills the poor and the needy,
And at night he is as a thief.
¹⁵ “The eye of the adulterer waits for the twilight,
Saying, ‘No eye will see me.’
And he disguises his face.
