>
24:1Considering then that there is no time hyd from the almightie, how happeneth it that they which know him do not regarde his dayes
24:2For some men remoue the landemarkes, robbe men of their cattell, and feede of the same
24:3They driue away the asse of the fatherlesse, and take the wydowes oxe for a pledge
24:4They cause the poore to turne out of the way, so that the poore of the earth hyde them selues together
24:5Beholde, as wilde asses in the desert go they foorth to their worke, & ryse betimes to spoyle: Yea the very wildernesse ministreth foode for them & their children
24:6They reape the corne fielde that is not their owne, and let the vineyarde of the vngodly alone
24:7They cause the naked to lodge without garment, and without couering in the colde
24:8They are wet with the showres of the mountaynes, and embrace the rocke for want of a couering
24:9They plucke the fatherlesse from the brest, and take the pledge from the poore
24:10They let hym go naked without clothing, and haue taken away the sheafe of the hungrie
24:11The poore are fayne to labour in their oyle mylles, yea and to treade in their wyne presses, and yet to suffer thirst
24:12Men out of the citie crye vnto the Lord with sighing, the soules of the slayne also crye out, yet God regardeth not their complaynt
24:13Where as they are conuersaunt among them that abhorre the light, they know not his way, nor continue in his pathes
24:14The murtherer ryseth early and killeth the poore and needy, and in the night is as a thiefe
24:15The eye of the adulterer wayteth for the darkenesse, & sayth, There shall no eye see me: and disguiseth his face
24:16In the darke they digge through houses, whiche they marked for them selues in the day time: they knowe not the light
24:17The morning is to them euen as the shadow of death: if one know them, they are in the terrours of the shadowe of death
24:18The vngodly is swyft vpon the water: their portion shalbe cursed in the earth, and he shall not beholde the way of the vineyardes
24:19As the drye grounde and heate consume the snowye waters: so shall the graue the sinners
24:20The pitifull man shall forget hym, he shalbe sweete to the wormes, he shalbe no more remembred, & his wickednesse shalbe broken as a tree
24:21He hath oppressed the barren that can not beare, and vnto the wydow hath he done no good
24:22He drue the mightie after hym with his power, and when he was gotten vp no man was sure of lyfe
24:23And though they gaue him to be in safetie, yet his eyes are vpon their wayes
24:24They are exalted for a litle, but shortly are gone, brought to pouertie, and taken out of the way, yea and vtterly pluckt of, as the eares of corne
24:25Is it not so? Who will then reproue me as a lyer, and say that my wordes are nothing worth? Bildad proueth that no man is cleane nor without sinne before God

24:3They leade away the asse of the fatherles: and take the widowes oxe to pledge.
24:4They make the poore to turne out of the way, so that the poore of the earth hide themselues together.
24:5Behold, others as wilde asses in the wildernesse, goe forth to their businesse, and rise early for a praye: the wildernesse giueth him and his children foode.

24:12Men cry out of the citie, and the soules of the slayne cry out: yet God doth not charge them with follie.
24:13These are they, that abhorre the light: they know not the wayes thereof, nor continue in the paths thereof.
24:14The murtherer riseth earely and killeth the poore and the needie: and in the night he is as a theefe.
24:15The eye also of the adulterer waiteth for the twilight, and sayth, None eye shall see me, and disguiseth his face.
24:16They digge through houses in the darke, which they marked for themselues in the daye: they knowe not the light.
24:17But the morning is euen to them as the shadow of death: if one knowe them, they are in the terrours of the shadowe of death.
24:18He is swift vpon the waters: their portion shalbe cursed in the earth: he will not behold the way of the vineyardes.
24:19As the dry ground and heate consume the snowe waters, so shall the graue the sinners.
24:20The pitifull man shall forget him: the worme shall feele his sweetenes: he shalbe no more remembered, and the wicked shalbe broke like a tree.

24:1Consyderinge then that there is no tyme hid from the Almyghtie, how happeneth it, that they which knowe hym, do not regarde his dayes?
24:2For some men there be, that remoue other mens landemarkes: that robbe them of their catell, and kepe the same for theyr awne:
24:3that dryue awaye the asse of the fatherlesse: that take the wyddowes oxe for a pledge:
24:4that thrust the poore out of the waye, and oppresse the simple of the worlde together.
24:5Beholde, euen as the wylde asses in the deserte goo they forth to their worke, and ryse by tymes to spoyle: Yee the very wyldernesse ministreth foode for their chyldren.
24:6They reape the corne felde that is not their awne: and let the vyneyarde of the vngodly alone.
24:7They are the cause that so many men are naked and bare, hauinge no clothes to couer them and to kepe them from colde:
24:8So that when the showers in the mountaynes haue rayned vpon them, & they be all wett, they haue none other succoure, but to kepe them amonge the rockes.
24:9They spoyle the suckinge fatherlesse childe, and take the pledge from the poore.

24:11The poore are fayne to laboure in their oyle milles, yee, and to treade in theyr wyne presses, and yet to suffre thyrst.
24:12The men of the cytie crieth vnto the Lorde with sything, the soules of the slayue also make theyr complainte: But God destroyeth them not for all this,
24:13where as they (not withstandinge) are conuersaunt amonge them that abhorre the lyght: they knowe not hys waye, ner contynue in his pathes.
24:14Tymely in the mornynge do they aryse, to murthur the symple and poore, and in the nyght they go a stealynge.
24:15The eye of the aduolterer wayteth for the darcknesse, and sayeth thus in him selfe: Tush, there shall no eye se me, and so he disgiseth his face.
24:16In the night ceason they search the houses, and hyde them selues in the daye tyme, but will not knowe the light.
24:17For as soone as the daye breaketh, the shadowe of death commeth vpon them, and they go in horrible darcknesse.
24:18The vngodly is swyfter then the water: their porcion shalbe cursed in the earth, and he shall not beholde the waye of the vineyardes.
24:19O that they (for the wickednesse which they haue done) were drawen to the hell, soner then snowe melteth at the drouth and heate.
24:20O that all compassion vpon them were forgotten: that their daynties were wormes, that they were cleane put out of remembraunce, and vngodlynesse vtterly hewen downe lyke as a tre.
24:21He hath oppressed the baren, that he cannot beare, and vnto the wyddowe hath he done no good.
24:22He drue the mightie after hym with his power, and when he was gotten vp, no man was without feare, as longe as he lyueth.
24:23And though they might be safe, yet they wyll not receaue it, for their eyes loke vpon their awne wayes.
24:24They are exalted for a lytle, but shortly are they gone, brought to extreme pouerte, and taken out of the waye: ye and vtterly pluckte of, as the eares of corne.
24:25Is it not so? Who wyll then reproue me as a lyar, and saye that my wordes are nothynge worth?
