Job 24:4 Context
2Some remooue the land-markes; they violently take away flocks, and feed thereof. 3They driue away the asse of the fatherlesse, they take the widowes oxe for a pledge. 4They turne the needy out of the way: the poore of the earth hide themselues together. 5Behold, as wilde asses in the desart, goe they foorth to their worke, rising betimes for a pray: the wildernes yeeldeth food for them, and for their children. 6They reape euery one his corne in the fielde: and they gather the vintage of the wicked.
