Job 24:10 Context
8They are wet with the showres of the mountaines, and imbrace the rocke for want of a shelter. 9They plucke the fatherlesse from the brest, and take a pledge of the poore. 10They cause him to go naked without clothing: and they take away the sheafe from the hungry, 11Which make oyle within their walles, and tread their winepresses, and suffer thirst. 12Men groane from out of the city, and the soule of the wounded crieth out: yet God layeth not folly to them.
