Job 24:13-17

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹³ “Such people are among those who rebel against the light.
They are not acquainted with its ways.
They do not stay on its paths.
¹⁴ At dawn murderers rise; they kill the poor and needy.
At night they become thieves.
¹⁵ Adulterers watch for twilight.
They say, ‘No one is watching us,’ as they cover their faces.
¹⁶ In the dark, they break into houses,
⌞but⌟ by day they lock themselves in.
They do not ⌞even⌟ know the light,
¹⁷ because morning and deep darkness are the same to them,
because they are familiar with the terrors of deep darkness.
