Job 24:11 in context

  1. 9There are those who pluck the fatherless from the breast,
    and take a pledge of the poor,
  2. 10So that they go around naked without clothing.
    Being hungry, they carry the sheaves.
  3. 11They make oil within the walls of these men.
    They tread wine presses, and suffer thirst.
  4. 12From out of the populous city, men groan.
    The soul of the wounded cries out,
    yet God doesn’t regard the folly.
  5. 13“These are of those who rebel against the light.
    They don’t know its ways,
    nor stay in its paths.
