Job 24:16 Context
14The murderer rising with the light, killeth the poore and needy, and in the night is as a thiefe. 15The eye also of the adulterer waiteth for the twilight, saying, No eye shall see me: and disguiseth his face. 16In the darke they digge through houses which they had marked for themselues in the day time: they know not the light. 17For the morning is to them euen as the shadow of death: if one know them, they are in the terrours of the shadow of death. 18Hee is swift as the waters, their portion is cursed in the earth: he beholdeth not the way of the Uineyards.
