Chapter 24 Why, seeing times are not
hidden from the Almighty, do they that

00:05.040 --> 00:06.700
know him not see his days?

00:07.060 --> 00:11.100
Some remove the landmarks, they violently
take away flocks and feed thereof,

00:11.320 --> 00:15.700
they drive away the ass of the fatherless,
they take the widow's ox for a pledge.

00:16.280 --> 00:20.540
They turn the needy out of the way,
the poor of the earth hide themselves

00:20.540 --> 00:21.080
together.

00:21.780 --> 00:25.920
Behold, as wild asses in the desert go
they forth to their work.

00:26.660 --> 00:30.660
Rising be times for a prey, the wilderness
yieldeth food for them and for their

00:30.660 --> 00:31.000
children.

00:31.700 --> 00:35.620
They reap every one his corn in the field,
and they gather the vintage of the wicked.

00:36.240 --> 00:40.260
They cause the naked to lodge without
clothing, that they have no covering in

00:40.260 --> 00:40.720
the cold.

00:41.600 --> 00:45.480
They are wet with the showers of the
mountains, and embrace the rock for want

00:45.480 --> 00:46.040
of a shelter.

00:46.820 --> 00:49.860
They pluck the fatherless from the breast
and take a pledge of the poor.

00:50.440 --> 00:54.420
They cause him to go naked without
clothing, and they take away the sheep

00:54.420 --> 00:59.160
from the hungry, which make oil within
their walls and tread their winepresses

00:59.160 --> 01:00.140
and suffer thirst.

01:00.960 --> 01:05.540
Men groan from out of the city,
and the soul of the wounded crieth out,

01:06.000 --> 01:08.080
yet God layeth not folly to them.

01:09.260 --> 01:11.400
They are of those that rebel against the
light.

01:11.780 --> 01:15.560
They know not the ways thereof,
nor abide in the paths thereof.

01:16.360 --> 01:20.300
The murderer, rising with the light,
killeth the poor and needy, and in the

01:20.300 --> 01:21.520
night is as a thief.

01:22.260 --> 01:27.740
The eye also of the adulterer waiteth for
the twilight, saying, No eye shall see me,

01:28.160 --> 01:29.820
and disguiseth his face.

01:30.400 --> 01:33.780
In the dark they dig through houses which
they had marked for themselves in the

01:33.780 --> 01:34.100
daytime.

01:34.940 --> 01:39.580
They know not the light, for the morning
is to them even as the shadow of death.

01:40.100 --> 01:44.040
If one know them, they are in the terrors
of the shadow of death.

01:45.140 --> 01:46.520
He is swift as the waters.

01:46.980 --> 01:48.760
Their portion is cursed in the earth.

01:49.300 --> 01:51.260
He beholdeth not the way of the vineyards.

01:52.000 --> 01:54.000
Drought and heat consume the snow waters.

01:54.580 --> 01:58.180
So doth the grave those which have sinned.

01:58.460 --> 01:59.620
The womb shall forget him.

02:00.020 --> 02:01.820
The worm shall feed sweetly on him.

02:02.480 --> 02:05.900
He shall be no more remembered,
and wickedness shall be broken as a tree.

02:06.460 --> 02:10.960
He evil entreateth the barren that beareth
not, and doeth not good to the widow.

02:11.800 --> 02:13.740
He draweth also the mighty with his power.

02:14.420 --> 02:19.180
He riseth up, and no man is sure of life,
though it be given him to be in safety

02:19.180 --> 02:20.420
whereon he resteth.

02:21.100 --> 02:23.080
Yet his eyes are upon their ways.

02:23.080 --> 02:27.800
They are exalted for a little while,
but are gone and brought low.

02:28.500 --> 02:33.160
They are taken out of the way as all
other, and cut off as the tops of the ears

02:33.160 --> 02:33.800
of corn.

02:34.660 --> 02:40.440
And if it be not so, now, who will make me
a liar, and make my speech nothing worth?
