13 “They are those who rebel against the light;
    they do not know its ways
    nor abide in its paths.
14 The murderer, rising with the light, kills the poor and needy,
    and in the night he is like a thief.
15 Also the eye of the adulterer waits for the twilight,
    saying, ‘No eye will see me’;
    and he disguises his face.
16 In the dark they break into houses,
    which they had marked for themselves in the daytime;
    they do not know the light.
17 For the morning is the same to them as the shadow of death;
    if someone recognizes them,
    they are in the terrors of the shadow of death.

17 For the morning is to them even as the shadow of death; if one know them, they are in the terrors of the shadow of death.
