New International Version
Job 24:13-17
New International Version
13 “There are those who rebel against the light,(A)
who do not know its ways
or stay in its paths.(B)
14 When daylight is gone, the murderer rises up,
kills(C) the poor and needy,(D)
and in the night steals forth like a thief.(E)
15 The eye of the adulterer(F) watches for dusk;(G)
he thinks, ‘No eye will see me,’(H)
and he keeps his face concealed.
16 In the dark, thieves break into houses,(I)
but by day they shut themselves in;
they want nothing to do with the light.(J)
17 For all of them, midnight is their morning;
they make friends with the terrors(K) of darkness.(L)

Job 24:13-17
Christian Standard Bible
13 The wicked are those who rebel against the light.
They do not recognize its ways
or stay on its paths.
14 The murderer rises at dawn
to kill the poor and needy,
and by night he becomes a thief.
15 The adulterer’s eye watches for twilight,
thinking, “No eye will see me,”
and he covers his face.
16 In the dark they break[a] into houses;
by day they lock themselves in,[b]
never experiencing the light.
17 For the morning is like darkness to them.
Surely they are familiar with the terrors of darkness!
Job 24:13-17
King James Version
Job 24:13-17
King James Version
13 They are of those that rebel against the light; they know not the ways thereof, nor abide in the paths thereof.
14 The murderer rising with the light killeth the poor and needy, and in the night is as a thief.
15 The eye also of the adulterer waiteth for the twilight, saying, No eye shall see me: and disguiseth his face.
16 In the dark they dig through houses, which they had marked for themselves in the daytime: they know not the light.
17 For the morning is to them even as the shadow of death: if one know them, they are in the terrors of the shadow of death.
