Job 24

1 Wickedness goeth often unpunished. 17 There is a secret judgment for the wicked.

 24:1 ¶ Why, x4069 seeing times 6256 are not x3808 hidden 6845 z8738 from the Almighty, 7706 x4480 do they that know 3045 z8802 him not x3808 see 2372 z8804 his days? 3117

 24:2 [Some] remove 5381 z8686 the landmarks; 1367 they violently take away 1497 z8804 flocks, 5739 and feed 7462 z8799 [thereof].

 24:3 They drive away 5090 z8799 the ass 2543 of the fatherless, 3490 they take y2254 z0 the widow's y490 ox y7794 for a pledge. 2254 z8799 x7794 x490

 24:4 They turn 5186 z8686 the needy 34 out of the way: 1870 x4480 the poor 6041 z8675 y6035 of the earth 776 hide 2244 z8795 themselves together. 3162

 24:5 Behold, x2005 [as] wild asses 6501 in the desert, 4057 go they forth 3318 z8804 to their work; 6467 rising betimes 7836 z8764 for a prey: 2964 the wilderness 6160 [yieldeth] food 3899 for them [and] for [their] children. 5288

 24:6 They reap 7114 z8799 z8675 z8686 [every one] his corn 1098 in the field: 7704 and they gather 3953 z8762 the vintage 3754 of the wicked. 7563

 24:7 They cause the naked 6174 to lodge 3885 z8686 without x4480 x1097 clothing, 3830 that [they have] no x369 covering 3682 in the cold. 7135

 24:8 They are wet 7372 z8799 with the showers 2230 x4480 of the mountains, 2022 and embrace 2263 z8765 the rock 6697 for want x4480 x1097 of a shelter. 4268

 24:9 They pluck 1497 z8799 the fatherless 3490 from the breast, 7699 x4480 and take a pledge 2254 z8799 of x5921 the poor. 6041

 24:10 They cause [him] to go 1980 z8765 naked 6174 without x1097 clothing, 3830 and they take away 5375 z8804 the sheaf 6016 [from] the hungry; 7457

 24:11 [Which] make oil 6671 z8686 within 996 their walls, 7791 [and] tread 1869 z8804 [their] winepresses, 3342 and suffer thirst. 6770 z8799

 24:12 Men 4962 groan 5008 z8799 from out of the city, 5892 x4480 and the soul 5315 of the wounded 2491 crieth out: 7768 z8762 yet God 433 layeth 7760 z8799 not x3808 folly 8604 [to them].

 24:13 They x1992 are x1961 of those that rebel 4775 z8802 against the light; 216 they know 5234 z8689 not x3808 the ways 1870 thereof, nor x3808 abide 3427 z8804 in the paths 5410 thereof.

 24:14 The murderer 7523 z8802 rising 6965 z8799 with the light 216 killeth 6991 z8799 the poor 6041 and needy, 34 and in the night 3915 is x1961 as a thief. 1590

 24:15 The eye 5869 also of the adulterer 5003 z8802 waiteth 8104 z8804 for the twilight, 5399 saying, 559 z8800 No x3808 eye 5869 shall see 7789 z8799 me: and disguiseth 5643 7760 z8799 [his] face. 6440

 24:16 In the dark 2822 they dig through 2864 z8804 houses, 1004 [which] they had marked 2856 z8765 for themselves in the daytime: 3119 they know 3045 z8804 not x3808 the light. 216

 24:17 For x3588 the morning 1242 [is] to them even as 3162 the shadow of death: 6757 if x3588 [one] know 5234 z8686 [them, they are in] the terrors 1091 of the shadow of death. 6757

 24:18 He x1931 [is] swift 7031 as x5921 x6440 the waters; 4325 y6440 their portion 2513 is cursed 7043 z8792 in the earth: 776 he beholdeth 6437 z8799 not x3808 the way 1870 of the vineyards. 3754

 24:19 Drought 6723 and x1571 heat 2527 consume 1497 z8799 the snow 7950 waters: 4325 [so doth] the grave 7585 [those which] have sinned. 2398 z8804

 24:20 The womb 7358 shall forget 7911 z8799 him; the worm 7415 shall feed sweetly 4988 z8804 on him; he shall be no x3808 more x5750 remembered; 2142 z8735 and wickedness 5766 shall be broken 7665 z8735 as a tree. 6086

 24:21 He evil entreateth 7462 z8802 the barren 6135 [that] beareth 3205 z8799 not: x3808 and doeth not x3808 good 3190 z8686 to the widow. 490

 24:22 He draweth 4900 z8804 also the mighty 47 with his power: 3581 he riseth up, 6965 z8799 and no x3808 [man] is sure 539 z8686 of life. 2416

 24:23 [Though] it be given 5414 z8799 him [to be] in safety, 983 whereon he resteth; 8172 z8735 yet his eyes 5869 [are] upon x5921 their ways. 1870

 24:24 They are exalted 7426 z8804 for a little while, 4592 but are gone x369 and brought low; 4355 z8717 they are taken out y7092 z8735 of the way y1870 x7092 as all x3605 [other], and cut off 5243 z8799 as the tops 7218 of the ears of corn. 7641

 24:25 And if x518 [it be] not x3808 [so] now, 645 who x4310 will make y7760 z8799 me a liar, 3576 z8686 and make 7760 z8799 my speech 4405 nothing x408 worth? y408
