'Victim' in the Bible

If a homicide victim should be found lying in a field in the land the Lord your God is giving you, and no one knows who killed him,

He becomes the victim of his own destructive plans and the violence he intended for others falls on his own head.

He waits in ambush near the villages; in hidden places he kills the innocent. His eyes look for some unfortunate victim.

You have taken notice, for you always see one who inflicts pain and suffering. The unfortunate victim entrusts his cause to you; you deliver the fatherless.

For there is a proper time and procedure for every matter, for the oppression of the king is severe upon his victim.

I will certainly save you. You will not fall victim to violence. You will escape with your life because you trust in me. I, the Lord, affirm it!"'"

The company of priests is like a gang of robbers, lying in ambush to pounce on a victim. They commit murder on the road to Shechem; they have done heinous crimes!
