They take their rest at night without clothing, and have no cover in the cold.

They send away the ass of him who has no father, they take the widow's ox for debt.

And the man whose desire is for the wife of another is waiting for the evening, saying, No eye will see me; and he puts a cover on his face. And in the night the thief goes about;

From the town come sounds of pain from those who are near death, and the soul of the wounded is crying out for help; but God does not take note of their prayer.

They get mixed grain from the field, and they take away the late fruit from the vines of those who have wealth.

Then there are those who are haters of the light, who have no knowledge of its ways, and do not go in them.

He who is purposing death gets up before day, so that he may put to death the poor and those in need.

For the middle of the night is as morning to them, they are not troubled by the fear of the dark.

In the dark he makes holes in the walls of houses: in the daytime they are shutting themselves up, they have no knowledge of the light.

Snow waters become dry with the heat: so do sinners go down into the underworld.

The landmarks are changed by evil men, they violently take away flocks, together with their keepers.

The child without a father is forced from its mother's breast, and they take the young children of the poor for debt.

For a short time they are lifted up; then they are gone; they are made low, they are pulled off like fruit, and like the heads of grain they are cut off.

He takes away his fear of danger and gives him support; and his eyes are on his ways.

But God by his power gives long life to the strong; he gets up again, though he has no hope of life.

And if it is not so, now, who will make it clear that my words are false, and that what I say is of no value?

He is not kind to the widow, and he has no pity for her child.
