Job 24:13-17

New Century Version

¹³ “Those who fight against the light
    do not know God’s ways
    or stay in his paths.
¹⁴ When the day is over, the murderers get up
    to kill the poor and needy.
    At night they go about like thieves.
¹⁵ Those who are guilty of adultery watch for the night,
    thinking, ‘No one will see us,’
    and they keep their faces covered.
¹⁶ In the dark, evil people break into houses.
    In the daytime they shut themselves up in their own houses,
    because they want nothing to do with the light.
¹⁷ Darkness is like morning to all these evil people
    who make friends with the terrors of darkness.
