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
International Standard Version
13 “Then there are those who rebel against the light;
they are not acquainted with its ways;
and they don’t stay on its course.[a]
14 The murderer rises at dawn to kill the poor and needy;
at night, he is like a thief.
15 The adulterer watches for twilight,[b]
saying, ‘No eye is watching me’
while he veils his face.
16 They break into houses in the dark;
during the day they remained sealed in.
They don’t know daylight.
17 As a group, deep darkness is their morning time;
fear that lives in darkness is their friend.”
