Or, Why is it, seeing times are not hidden from the Almighty, That they who know him see not his days?

Why are times not laid up by the Almighty?

And why do not they that know him see his days?

2There are that remove the landmarks;

They violently take away flocks, and feed them.

3They drive away the ass of the fatherless;

They take the widow’s ox for a pledge.

4They turn the needy out of the way:

And they glean the vintage of the wicked.

7They lie all night naked without clothing,

And have no covering in the cold.

And the soul of the wounded crieth out:

Yet God regardeth not the folly.

13These are of them that rebel against the light;

They know not the ways thereof,

Nor abide in the paths thereof.

14The murderer riseth with the light;

He killeth the poor and needy;

And in the night he is as a thief.

15The eye also of the adulterer waiteth for the twilight,

Saying, No eye shall see me:
