Job 24:13-17
Legacy Standard Bible
13 “[a]Others have been with those who rebel against the light;
They do not want to recognize its ways
Nor abide in its paths.
14 The murderer (A)arises at dawn;
He (B)kills the afflicted and the needy,
And at night he is as a thief.
15 The eye of the (C)adulterer keeps watch for the twilight,
Saying, ‘No eye will see me.’
And he [b]keeps his face hidden.
16 In the dark they (D)dig into houses;
They (E)shut themselves up by day;
They do not know the light.
17 For the morning is the same to him as the shadow of death,
For he recognizes the (F)terrors of the shadow of death.
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!
