- 1Wherefore from the Mighty One Times have not been hidden, And those knowing Him have not seen His days.
- 2The borders they reach, A drove they have taken violently away, Yea, they do evil.
- 3The ass of the fatherless they lead away, They take in pledge the ox of the widow,
- 4They turn aside the needy from the way, Together have hid the poor of the earth.
- 5Lo, wild asses in a wilderness, They have gone out about their work, Seeking early for prey, A mixture for himself -- food for young ones.
- 6In a field his provender they reap, And the vineyard of the wicked they glean.
- 7The naked they cause to lodge Without clothing. And there is no covering in the cold.
- 8From the inundation of hills they are wet, And without a refuge -- have embraced a rock.
- 9They take violently away From the breast the orphan, And on the poor they lay a pledge.
- 10Naked, they have gone without clothing, And hungry -- have taken away a sheaf.
- 11Between their walls they make oil, Wine-presses they have trodden, and thirst.
- 12Because of enmity men do groan, And the soul of pierced ones doth cry, And God doth not give praise.

- 14At the light doth the murderer rise, He doth slay the poor and needy, And in the night he is as a thief.

- 25And if not now, who doth prove me a liar, And doth make of nothing my word?
