Judges 9:32

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Now therefore up by night, thou and the people that is with thee, and lie in wait in the field:

At the light doth the murderer rise, He doth slay the poor and needy, And in the night he is as a thief.

Iniquity he deviseth on his bed, He stationeth himself on a way not good, Evil he doth not refuse.'

If they say, 'Come with us, we lay wait for blood, We watch secretly for the innocent without cause,

For they sleep not if they do not evil, And their sleep hath been taken violently away, If they cause not some to stumble.

Swift are their feet to shed blood.
