Job 24:13-17

Common English Bible

¹³ They rebel against light,
    don’t acknowledge its direction,
    don’t dwell in its paths.
¹⁴ The murderer rises at twilight,
    kills the poor and needy;
    at night, they are like a thief.
¹⁵ The adulterer’s eye watches for twilight,
    thinking, No eye can see me,
    and puts a mask over his face.
¹⁶ In the dark they break into houses;
    they shut themselves in by day;
    they don’t know the light.
¹⁷ Deep darkness is morning to them
    because they recognize the horror of darkness.
