Job 24:13-17

Revised Standard Version

¹³ “There are those who rebel against the light,
    who are not acquainted with its ways,
    and do not stay in its paths.
¹⁴ The murderer rises in the dark,^[a]
    that he may kill the poor and needy;
    and in the night he is as a thief.
¹⁵ The eye of the adulterer also waits for the twilight,
    saying, ‘No eye will see me’;
    and he disguises his face.
¹⁶ In the dark they dig through houses;
    by day they shut themselves up;
    they do not know the light.
¹⁷ For deep darkness is morning to all of them;
    for they are friends with the terrors of deep darkness.
