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